Just checked the circuit diagram for carbed bikes ...

Brown (bottom wire in your pic) goes direct to the positive + terminal on your battery. But you should insert a 30amp fuse and heavy duty fuse carrier in this wire ... Somewhere it is easy to check.

Three middle wires (black with blue stripe) go to the stator ... Really to a connector going to the stator.

(IMPORTANT: Anyone with an EFI bike looking at these wire positions note THE WIRES ARE IN DIFFERENT POSITIONS than for the carbed bikes as detailed here.)

Carbed bikes continued...
Black wire (top in your pic) goes directly to earth (ground) - negative. I can't remember if the earth should go direct to the - negative battery terminal or to the engine earth. Both would be good. The existing earth for the whole loom is on the back of the final drive case (engine) just beside the R/R. Simply connect it to the bolt there. Anyway refer to the older thread for wiring instructions.

The positions of the wires in your pic are as described above. I mean don't worry about trying to tell the difference between the colors. You CAN see the diff in the brown wire and that's +. The middle 3 go to the stator and the remaining wire is the earth. BTW no fuse req on the earth -.

Edit for viewer with EFI bikes follows.

5 wire positions for EFI BIKES ... Wire sequence in connector to R/R:
Brown = positive + to inline fuse to + battery terminal
Black = negative - to earth on engine
Black blue stripe to stator connection any order
Black blue stripe to stator connection any order
Black blue stripe to stator connection any order
