Does your ML suffer from lots of cable rub around the rocker area? If so, what have you done to prevent it?

Yes.

To stop it worsening use two zip ties. Zip tie the gear cable and brake hose together (mine cross over at this point) and then zip tie the first zip tie to the brace which joins the two rocker plates.

Doesn't eliminate it completely, but it limits it enough to not be a big problem. Mine has one small groove worn into one of the plates and the anodising worn on the bracing pin and it hasn't got any worse in 4 years (old style alu rockers).

Cheers chaps, mine seems to be suffering a fair bit. Both rocker plates, brace, top-tube. Hoping to try and get some heli tape to stick.
