So, was curious what kind of miles people had on their bikes, when they had these problems? Thanks
Mine started to show symptoms around 16K miles. Initially is was random engine dying. The 30 amp fuse fix mentioned above fixed that problem.

Later I figured out the monitor wire problem which fixed all the wiring in the bike starting to burn up, light bulbs blowing, and batteries getting fried from 16+ volts coming from the R/R.

I never had the ground wire problem, I found out about the fix and did it preemptively a long time ago.
