I cut new, longer wires and moved the solenoid into my e-tank.

You can get 4-6 guage wire anywhere, but I got cool-looking wire from Ton's (https://tonsperformance.com/). And of course you need ring terminals and then shrink wrap the ends.

Take a photo of your solenoid so you remember which is red and black, but it's also marked "B" and "M" for "Battery" or RED / and "Motor" for BLACK wire to the Starter.

I grew up on motorcycles, but this is my first chopper. I'm building it out and am learning as I go using TJBC parts, videos, and digital shop manuals, etc.

If you've got more motorcycle questions, post them below. I may not be the best one to ask, but I'm sure they'll help everyone searching the forum for an answer.
