I think Suraklyn has used those in an attempt to tame the cable rats nest behind his home theater stuff.  I gave up years ago and decided, "Why make it easier on the rats?"

They are pretty handy and not just with motorcycles. Kinda wide and would probably be less secure than the original-style zips. These are like many of my in-store HF purchases... a random "cool, I'll take some" impulse buy.

Good to hear from you, Bob.
