Default need some starter wiring advice. Please oh please

So I was taking out the connectors from my wiring harness trying to hide it and when I was soldering the wires back the red and black wire from the starter switch broke at an old solder joint and it came out from the bars(apes 17") and spent the last two days trying to feed the wire back through the bars used a wire hanger tried string tried a million times but to no avail I couldnt get it through so I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions in the area I was thinking to spice a wire and the white and blue to run the red and black up to the starter then split it at the top 2 in 1 type thing but it doesnt seem smart, any thoughts on that?

oh and I have an 02 sportster

Tie a piece of string around the wire, use a vacuum to suck the string through the hole.

If all else fails use one of the existing wires to pull 2 new wires up, 1 for the one that broke, the other because you used it to pull the wires through.
