Nice!  J&P also sells this type of wiring but in 25' length rather than the 13' that Z1 offers.  Prices are in the same ballpark.

Does anyone including Z1 know the gauge of the wire??? Doesn't help without the gauge. You need the gauge for proper placement and use...

Don't know about the Z1 wiring, but J&P's wire is 16 gauge.

Our wire is OEM equivilent.  The wire is 0.75mm multi-strand copper wire.  That's thinner than the J&P wire.   I think that equates to about 20 gauge wire.

I've come across Rhode Island Wire (riwire.com).  They have almost every color code used in my CB400F harness and the prices look good.
