Grew up in Orlando Florida Lockhart area lots of Full patch Warlock and Outlaws club members. Admired the Harleys from afar, until now i owned, operated, and maintained 08 FLSTC, recent work done looking under gas tank for bad wiring. found one scuffed wire with exposed copper in where battery sits is a green/yellow wire. not sure if it cause ignition fuse short though i have taped it.

I would solderit and cover it in shrink tubing
 
Welcome from Spokane.
I also think you need to cut the wire slip on shrink tape and solder it.
Voltage will cause corrosion at the open to air area even with tape wrapped around it. Then that green stuff travels inside the wire and the nightmares begin.
