What gauge batt cable for my Yamaha?

I just mounted my 1995 Yamaha 85 and was wondering what gauge batt cable Yamaha recommends. The rubber block at the front isn't that large so the cable can't be that large.

6 B&S is ample and it fits inside the rubber grommet.

We always wire the battery to starter with 8 gauge.
