On my dirt bikes, i cut a length of colored tubing(1/4 id) and run the ziptie thru it around the cables back thru it then around the bars to hold the cables away from the bar at whatever space is desirable. i do this with the clutch cable, brake cables, etc and as i don't have internal wiring on the bars, the starter and kill switch wires to. it is professional looking when done and keeps my tie downs from severing the wires. i did this on my dual sport as well. i like the looks of the chrome wire loom though!
My clutch and brake lines stay put with nothing attached to them. Makes it really clean with all wires through the bars
I have the same phenomenon!
One of my friends has 16's and his clutch able is all over the place, so he used a clamp, we've tried to straighten it out, but I keeps flopping around..... I think it's due to it being an active cable whereas the brake line is just a hydraulic hose.
