What's the best way to..........

Post by Coyote »

Repair this harness? It looks lie either way it will have to be cut and spliced. Bullet connectors won't fit through and the point tabs definitely won't go. Who sells the replacement sheathing? Is it heat shrink?

I brought the proper tubing at an auto electric parts shop.it cost about $3.00 per meter.just by looking it looks like you could use a 10mm diameter.I had the 13mm to do all my main wires + 12mm for hand control wiring + 6mm for tach wires.some bullits I did cut off and replace after threading through.I tried heat shrink but it didnt look as good. :)

In addition to Vintage Connections, another source I've used recently for sleeving is here: http://4rcustomscycleparts.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - they sell it in inch sizes, but the 3/8's was close enough to 10mm that I was happy.
