All -- I've searched high and low, and cannot source the wovan plastic material many manufacturers (including Buell) uses to cover the wiring harness -- NAPA, Autozone, none of the locals seem to have a source of this stuff -- any hints, please? I really don't want to resort to hot neon blue split plastic conduit!

Bomber,

Google it under "wire loom snakeskin"

snake skin is the common term for what you seek. It does come in many variables.

I used left over scraps from work.

-on the handlebar runs
-oil lines when I added the oil cooler

Do I ever need to take pics and document this stuff......

Wyck....

Very much so. All the little stuff one does and never really thinks about it afterward.

-the snakeskin
-oil cooler mounts(initial work-up in use)
-oil cooler shround/scoop design(in work)
-add ons to my trailer during the overhaul
-my original breather bolt mod(negated by XB prts)
-added mini guage panel
-replacement pins for my PM calipers
-radar detector mount(since shelved)

The current item which occupies A-Cad and me, is a work table/stand. Designed to fit beside the bike in the trailer during transport. Target weight is less than 30lbs. And occupy no more than a 4' x 2' x 1' area
