E-Start Commando Cable upgrade
For easier starting, a cable upgrade is proven to be of very significant
benefit. The originals are 10 gauge .025ohms.
The upgraded cables are 6 gauge fine strand and more flexible
than original cables. The resistances is almost 1/3 of originals at .010ohms.
The original electric battery is shown in the shop manual with the
terminals facing the rear of the bike. I have found difficulty fitting
the heavy ground cable in this configuration. I will offer a longer 06-5911
ground (red) cable if so desired. Please mention it when you order. It
is about 25.5" long instead of the stock 22.5". If you mount the terminals
forward then order the short cable.
If you decide to make your own cables, don't be foolish and forget
you need all three cables. You must put a fat ground cable to get the full
benefit.
