I'm adding a GPS and I'm curios if anyone knows the name and/or brand of the stuff used to cover the wires on motorcycles?

It's black and smooth, with no slits in it. I'm guessing it's heat resistant as well.

My googling's been fruitless. Thanks!

Not shrink tube. It's on all motorcycles (it seams). Think of the wire that comes from the horn/turn-signal/hi-beam switch and is covered in a black housing. It's smoother (shinier) than shrink tubing.

I would think there are different gauges as well, depending on how much wire will run thru it.

I'm hoping someone can just name this stuff, so i can google it.

Thanks!
