putting a few hundred feet of chrome plated plastic wire wrap on every cable and wire on your bike, Please don't. Actually when it's new it probably looks ok. But when it's 10 years old and all yellow not so much. And some poor schmuk like me will buy the bike and have to remove it all. And I don't think it comes off as easily as it goes on.  You can't just twist it off. It just gets tighter like one of those Chinese finger cuff things. Unless you can get a hold of the other end and twist it at the same time and speed, which is impossible because its under the tank or behind the fairing or..........





It's kind of therapeutic for the first hour or so(like popping bubble wrap) then it's just tedious.

My bike had that too, most of it was very brittle and broke off. I am glad it is now history!
