From the distance in the picture I don't think it looks bad. I think on your bike black wires would stand out too much and look worse.

I will get closeups of the ends I actually used litttle chrome wire ties up at the ends by the switches to hold em tight up in there. I got it from cabletiesandmore.com they have a ton of stuff I also got braided stainless and they also have braided chrome which is a mylar with a chrome luster you have to check it out. I was thinking of doing my clutch cable with that. And yes they have different sizes so far ive got the 3/8 and 1/2 inch in the wire loom and the chrome braided mylar comes in 1/4 3/8 and 1/2 but they all have a range it tells you on the site. I have ordered from them 3 times now and they ship pretty fast.

here are some close ups also I threw what I had left over on the lower half of my clutch cable just to see. I have the braided sleeving coming for that though so I wont be leaving that on but it can give you an idea what this stuff looks like. It really shines and the nice thing is you dont have to take ANYTHING apart to get it on. Charlie chrome wire loom-wireloom-001.jpg
