1981 kz1100 wiring diagram for speedo, tach, fuel

Does anyone have a diagram for a 1981 kz1100 that shows what each color wire is for speedo, tach, and fuel gauge? I have a new koso gauge and I am trying to wire it to the factory gauge connectors? I have a diagram that shows wire flow but not which wire controls what. A list would work fine too.
Thanks

Thanks Patton. I have them all figured out now except which hot wire would be the best source for my main power?
