Wiring trick

Havent used this one in a long time.Broke it out tonight.If you are running a bundle of wires on a long run ,say along the frame rail of a bike,and dont want a million zipties all over the place,get a stiff piece of wire like a coat hanger or whatever.I like to use filler rods that i have for the TIG.They are super stiff.Just run it along in the wire bundle and then you can bend and form the whole bundle with out having to use all those ties.Works good,just putting it out there.

I would rather have a severe beating then have to deal with wires run through the handlebars.
