Did you ever get this resolved? BEN500RS was having problems with his, and I think he ended up changing front section of harness that is on right side of steering stem. Mine, killed original battery last winter, when riding in snow. I installed Antigravity battery that has a jump start mode on battery. Now, it seems hit or miss if will do anything when I turn key switch on. Intermittently, turn key on, headlight comes on, starts strong, no issue. I can kill engine with key, turn it back on, and there will be nothing, no headlight, no low fuel light, nothing. I try key a couple of times, still nothing. I remove seat, hit the jump start on the battery, key on, headlight on, fires right up. So, on yesterday's street ride, I toggled Voyager to show input voltage, and it hovered right at 12.0 to 12.3 volts going down the road. And if you got hard on throttle, voltage would go down slightly and then maintain. If I turned grip heaters on, voltage would go down to 11.6-11.9 volts. Key on, engine off, shows 10.8v after running grip heaters for a while. So, I think it's time to start chasing what my problem is. I can remember voltage being around 13.8-14 some odd volts when I got the bike, and grip heaters didn't really affect voltage when on.
