Issue resolved. There were was only one wire that looked bad, it was inside of the turn signal fixture. I peeled to see if it was broken but it was not. I taped it up and taped just about every other wire that goes inside the head light and problem appears to be resolved. I will carry fuses with me just in case and if it happens again somewhere I may just disconnect that turn signal in order to make it home.

I wanted to take care of some other things while I've got the tank off but I may wait a week or so as I gashed a couple of my fingers last night while preparing a brisket. The fingers are a little sore and the one that took the brunt of the knife hit starts bleeding if I use any strength in the finger. We'll see how the fingers feel tomorrow. Brisket was good!!!

I guess I haven't finished. I just adjusted the valves. 2 were good and 2 were too tight. I was about to put the tank back on when I remembered I also need to install the raptor petcock. So, time to take a break cause it is too hot. Will try to install the petcock later in the evening.

Petcock and new fuel hose installed. Also new breather hose? Hose that goes from the cylinder head to the air box. And new oil and filter.  Took a quick, short ride and smells different. I guess it is the hoses. Anyway, as Raydawg said, "It's a wrap"!
