If you want it to look correct you could use 1mm flat stock and "shrink wrap" it

If it shows, I would use Wookie's and Nessism's suggestions. If not visible I use zip ties.

I use 1/2 wide black Velcro tape that comes on rolls. Fuzzy side towards frame/wire.

That part was used on a bunch of Kawasaki models up to at least 2005, so there ought to be plenty on ebbay. At partzilla click the part number for the cross-reference. I only searched by part number and found a few reasonably priced on eb. other searches should yield more results.
Used item #385222458990 was the cheapest I saw: $5.25T + tax for 3. should clean up fine. dremel w fine/soft wire wheel on the metal and silicone spray lubricant on the plastic. I like the liquid wrench silicone spray.
Also, there are Kawasaki & aftermarket band clamps that come in various sizes/lengths. see chassis electrical diagram.
New aftermarket. #394440473860. universal 8-pc kit. $15T. cheaper is probably available.
