    Makes sense to me, electrical tape seems to be too easily effected by temperature changes and weather in general, then starts to peal off. I much prefer shrink wrap but don't know if that is the best to use.

    Yep, In this case I think there is no connector end to conveniently get heat shrink over and on it, without disassembling a connector. I have used self encapsulating silicone electrical tape before on AC power lines, but not on my Buell or a vehicle. Has any ever used this kind of tape on a motorcycle or car before? Think it may work well for this application, I have not done it before so cannot say for sure it would work?

    You can take the pins out of the connector easily with a small pick or a filed down paperclip to allow the proper sized heatshrink to fit over the wire.

    Best fix is to just replace the damaged wire completely. Cut, replace, solder.

    The wire was not cut. I believe it was the throttle position sensor. I will try some heat shrink.
