"Pouch" needed to protect connectors after fairing removal

[Guest]

Hello,

I removed the fairing on my 1982 GS1100GK. Some of the electrical connectors are now out in the open, which exposes them to the elements and it does not look good.

At least same of the cables are not long enough to hide them in the headlight shell, so I am looking for a black plastic pouch to hide the cables in.

I checked some OEM part fiches but was not able to find a pouch.

Any recommendation would be appreciated.

A vinyl drawstring bag, such as is made for camera lenses would be just the thing. Make sure it can't fill up with water.

Confess I'm not familiar with your fairing but on a windjammer, getting all the connectors in a single spot was problematic. Where any connector cluster defintely is vulnerable I will go with:

CHEAP garden hose(no fabric), pvc hose, - all more useful when shaped with a heat gun and shaped over a mold...shrink tube in large sizes and only heated at the ends...good high quality electrical tape to seal one end..(dollar store electrical tape is garbage-3M is generally very good)

Without a picture it is hard to envision exactly what you are talking about, but you can get 1" shrink tubing (or larger depending upon the size needed)and slide it over a connector and it will do a pretty good job of protecting an connector.

That's exactly what I was going to suggest.

Thanks for your replies. I ended up using an old Suzuki motorcycle tool bag/pouch and zip-tied it around the cables and connectors to prevent water and dust from entering.
