    Maybe in some spots where the harness isn't protected by the convoluted tubing. I never found a use for Tesa tape while working on my truck. I know other manufacturers use it in certain locations.
    You can wrap the entire harness in Tesa, but I found it isn't necessary, maybe in the 2-wheel setting the needs are slightly different.
    Keep in mind, I have no motorcycle experience.

    I can handle a ban. But someone here can't handle a joke. Probably an easily triggered 2nd gen owner.

    Silicone self-fusing tape is pretty good stuff. The old Toyota wiring repair kit had a roll of it. You can find it on Amazon.

    Tesa is good stuff, but it's waaaaaaaaay more difficult to remove than 33+ or any other electrical tape.

    I dont see what the generation of truck has to do with the help we can receive on ALL of these posts. That comment is really absurd..

    Not sure what everyone's getting up about. Seemed like a joke to me.
