****** UPDATE *******

I let my bike sit the past few days due to my frustrations. Today I bought a new radiator cap and tried it out. The bike still over-heated, then fan did not come on but water was not pouring out the bottom

So my fan is not coming on. I grounded the fan and it came on. Does that mean the fan is working? Replaced the thermo sending unit on the radiator right next to the fan. Checked the wiring as far up as I could but I seem to lose the wires and cannot see where they go to. Anyone? I also checked the fuse and its ok.

Wires, thermo unit, fuse and fan. Am I missing anything else in the system?
