Yep, I would check the connectors. Mine came loose at 60 miles...

^^^ If that's not your problem check the voltage regulator from not running headlights.

As SH and RMS said...

1) Connectors on the switch
2) Voltage Regulator (mounted Chaincase side of the sled) to the front of the "pyramid" NOT the one on the clutch cover.
3) Grip heaters shorted to the bars. ( Disconnect connector check for continuity from each wire to the bars)

When you delete your headlights, I highly recommend running a load resistor... Shunt style Voltage regulators need to get "dump" the energy somewhere.... otherwise the VR can, and often does, fail... on the 2013/14's both regs are in the same case... taking out the lighting/charging/heating regulator can take out the ECU one sometimes.
