Thanks for the electrical troubleshooting tips on the stator and voltage
regulator, Bill.

I found out this morning that both the stator and voltage regulator are
bad. You can smell the burnt up stator when opening the inspection cover.

Not sure if the voltage regulator killed the stator, or a near overheating
instance I had about a month ago added to it.

Next time a highway is closed from an accident, I plan on pulling to the
side and side sooner.  

I don't know if that had anything to do with it since it was around a month
ago.  Either way, this is the first repair on the bike I have had since I
owned it (8 years).  It is also 10 years old now, so I can't complain.

The parts are going to be close to $400, so I'm expecting a $800 repair bill.

I'm looking at getting an additional bike (HD touring style) in the next
year or so.  Electra Glide or Ultra Classic most likely.
