It was born 6 volt, positive ground. Could have been changed. Steve has covered things to check to see which it is now.
As for wiring harness, if it were mine I would get some good quality automotive wire and connectors and make my own. Just replace wires one at a time. Black split loom works to encase multiple wires. 10 gauge wire from generator/alternator to ammeter and to big battery wire at the starter switch. Rest can be 14 gauge.
