Wire for bike wanted

I'm hoping someone can tell me the best place to buy modern wire for rewiring my 1983 gs850L. I have already rewired it once but now I am upgrading the electrical system with a anti gravity battery and a hotshot regrec from Ricks aswell as anew stator from Rick's aswell. I would like to use better wire possible even color correct or a little closer than it is. For example my power wires are all red,and I would like to make them orange with the correct color stripes. Just orange will do though. My biggest concern is the quality of the wire. I'd appreciate any info you have ,thanks.
 
Before you buy any wire, have you already bought the "regrec"? If not, DON'T.

Get an SH775 regulator, instead. There are MANY threads here about its advantages.

I bought the the hotshot regrec from Rick's electric to go with the lithium ion battery I bought. I dont believe the sh775 is compatible. From what I read it is for lead acid batterys
 
I have no experience with Rick's products, but have seldom heard much good about lithium batteries.

What was your incentive to switch to a lithium battery?

I needed something smaller aswell as sealed To make it disappear under the seat . Maney aftermarket company's recommended aswell as sell Rick's products and anti gravity batterys. I also continued to see people use these products in YouTube videos. If I could figure out the whole photobucket thing I would post picks.
 
You don’t need photobucket. Imgur works fine. Instruction linked in my signature.
