Yea, after the grounding issue fixed "half" the problem and it was still overheating I told the dealer to check after reading @HondaTech response (as well as a PM). Both issues I brought up to the dealer after reading the responses on this thread. Thanks to everyone here with their responses but unfortunately the dealer wouldn't listen to me but instead waited on Honda to tell them what I suggested based off info from here.

If I had to bring my Talon in for some kind or recall or something crazy like that I'd drive my ass up to Ohio just to have him work on my stuff.

The majority of my information is from experience having dealt with all these issues and more over the last 5 years of the P1K.
We're still dealing with all these issues even on 2021 models. You develop a play book of things to check first and eliminate before you start digging into the unknown.

@HondaTech - 13 quarts? Damn...
But that brings up a good point - with a tiny range on the P1000 dipstick, some confusion on reading the vaguely opaque level indicator on a gallon of oil, and a dipstick that doesn't always go in straight, I've had a few times when getting the oil level right was a real pain.
I drained some back out after being nearly a quart high, and that was a big freaking mess. Is it likely that it wouldn't have been a problem at all?
