Looks like this time around everything went better. The fan came on after about 5 minutes, so I shut down the bike. There were no angry sounds and no high temp light. It's cooling now, and I'll check in an hour or so to make sure the levels are correct then call this project done.
yar see my addition above. What was also recommended to me was to ride it around and wait for fan to turn on instead of letting it sit. Maybe try that in an hour. After it cools make sure to top if off from cap if needed and top off the reservoir. I had to top off reservoir on my last go around.
