Thanks a BUNCH for that info Brice. It's always appreciated when someone imparts something they've learned at some point. I haven't had to dig into them but I'm just wondering if those colors are the same for the US. Anyone else know the answer?

but just a heads up the cable colours change between the point of where you plug them in and inside the factory lights my list represents this for example the right indicator positive stars of brown but then goes to blue purple.
and I figured mine out all
individually hopefully it helps someone.

The wires that are in the indicators are the same colour if they are not handed and can be used on the left or right side of the bike. For that reason they will have the same colour wires.

Either left side or right side specific.
It is not the case with the Sportster S but on other bikes the turn signal is the same on the left and right side. As they are the same with the same part number they are not handed.
