The SE wires MUST do something. There was a sticker right on the box that said something like "These parts are for experienced riders only" I got the red ones. Red wires are the fastest ones.

I noticed much less vibration issues with red wires than black

Anyone know where I can order the black plastic clips that secure the spark plug wires to the metal plate just above the horn? I thought about just using black zip ties

Get another tie wrap and do the same thing.

Now insert the tie wrap pig tails through the top holes in your horn bracket, get the other two tie wraps and cut the pig tails off of them (maybe leave a 1/4" on). Now take those two tie wrap heads and slip them up on the two pig tails that are going through the bracket, snug it up.

You can also use the original tie wrap heads, cut the pig tail off then use a regular tie wrap, snug it up around the wire and insert the pigtail through the original head.

To replace the rear clip that goes between the two wires, use a large tie wrap as a spacer, use a solder iron to burn a small hole near the ends, then use two small tie wraps to attach the spacer to the wire.
