Roketa DB36A help needed

I recently picked up a Roketa DB36a from a buddy for $50, doesn't run. It spent it's life in Arizona and if you know anything about living here you know that any sort of wiring doesn't last long. Wiring harness is shot, dry rotted itself. I'm now in need of a new wiring harness, kill switch and all the wiring components such as the starter relay and so forth as they've all rotted as well. I was wondering if those Chinese wiring kits from eBay would work on the bike since I see listings that have everything needed to wire the bike for around $50 where as just the harness from the roketa site is $50 alone, then $20 for killswitch and it just adds up to a lil too much for my taste. I guess my question is can I use one of those Chinese wiring kits from eBay or will I need to throw some dough for the "genuine" parts from the manufacturer?
