Thanks for all the feedback and ideas.
I looked at adding a quick disconnect at the headlight, but found since all the wires run in one sleeve to the battery area, I have arranged the connectors to easily disconnect there. With all the extra wires I would have needed two plugs, maybe three at the headlight.
Good point on the fuses. I did consider adding a fuse block but found there is not a lot places to install it without running a lot of extra wires - probably the best is in the headlight. I did end up with two inline fuses - one at battery and one on the ign coil. I can always add a few more. Remember to carry spares.
So far only electrical issue was accidentally pulling a group earth to the LED idiot lights out when I had the headlight open - it just needed the extra push to click it in.
Having the LED running lights during the day has worked well - very visible even in sunshine. The turn signals are well worth it too - peace of mind - be seen.
The LED idiot generator light from the McDouglator works very well - I can see if the red light is on when I walk away, if I haven't turned the key off. The light also goes out when the engine is running/charging as designed.
