Wiring sources

I need help sourcing new, stock looking wires for my 71 enduro. For the most part the original harness is intact and functional but since I've basically reconditioned everything else on the bike it would be a shame to not go with a new harness. Is there anyone that reproduces those older color coded wires? Any advice appreciated, thanks.

try looking in the histerical automotive world, car restorers are nuts over that stuff

There are none I'm aware of. You may have to build your own. If you're into that the links below have gray sheathing and waterproof bullet connectors. I re-sheathed my 73 RT wiring harness a few years ago with stuff from this vendor and it turned out good.

Try contacting a guy who goes by DEET on the Yamaha forums. He has tons of colored and striped wiring and literally miles of silver sheathing in many sizes... He builds very nice reproduction harnesses for Yamaha Enduros... he might be willing to copy your harness and almost certainly will sell you the wire you need to do it yourself at a good price.

Thanks for the link Mark. Crash, did you have any issues with brittleness or corrosion affecting continuity using the original wire?
