I noticed this one day while looking up under the center fairing at the wires just under the head light. As you turn the handle bars these wires rub across a metal bar. Over a period of time they will wear right through. Has anyone encountered this ? What did you do about it ?

Can you cable tie them up out of the way?

About a year ago, on my 1983 GL 1100,I noticed the same thing, outer covering over the wires rubbed through. Since the bike is 25-26 years old must take awhile to rub through. I just re-wrapped the wiring with electrical tape and adjusted/moved wiring so they don't rub so much. So far so good.

I agree with the electrical tape.
Good Luck,
