My plan is to get it running than decide if I like it or my xs650 better... Needing some shop funds so I'll be selling one of them probably. If I can make myself actually let one of them go.

Welcome Joe, get yourself a JIS screwdriver, they are far superior to normal phillips head drivers, you can get JIS drivers for impact drivers as well, in case you don't know, JIS is "Japanese industry standard" they don't cam out like phillips head drivers and are far superior.... ;)

If You can't fix it with a hammer, You've got an electrical problem.

Ya I guess that's what I need. I'm planning on changing all over to stainless Allen bolts. I'm getting most out using the "screwdriver and mallet" method.

Impact driver and a #3 bit is a must.  Best $12 you will ever spend on tools....
