6 core cable anyone?

[Auldgit]

Hi all, I am having some problems with the wiring on the bike, it's getting a bit weary in places due to constant flexing so I'm thinking of a partial rewire. The main connection from h/bars to controller etc has 6 cores inside a sheath- any idea where I could source this??

Cheers AG

I have some motor 9 core cables, Audgit, 6 signal plus 3 power wires complete with plug and socket.
Check out the classified section by seaching for Replacement motor cable.
Always nice to have a few spare cores.
I also have some standard 6way crimp plug and sockets available.

I bought some 7 core trailer cables at 10A. They seem very bulky for the max amps. Not as good quality as the Turnigy silicon wire and much bigger.

But actually, from all the wires I've purchased online, none of them were as good quality as the turnigy wire.

Now I think I'll only purchase from them even if it's not multicore. Just going to add a braided cable holder on top of it.

Not as clean, but smaller, with better quality, thinner wire and better electric conductivity.

Hi, I've looked on the Turnigy website but can't find any wire?? Cheers AG

The correct cable for signal level connections is 6 strands x 0.2mm. Also available in 8 and 12 way. This is the cable I use for rewiring machines with front junction boxes. This is also the correct size for use with JST SM 2.5 connectors.

As I mentioned in a post a long time ago, JST connectors are nearly impossible to crimp without a proper tool. I notice that the one I bought back then is still available:
