Will check it out tomorrow. I got it up to about 40mph with one foot peg and the motor mounts being 3/8 of an inch to the right. Was scared to go any faster. The electrical is going to be awhile. The only thing I worry about with a 12 volt system is where to put the battery. I am sure the 12 volt will be a bigger battery. All in good time. Should I post specific stuff in Other Brands do you think?

Welcome!
To me, it qualifies as a China bike, since it has a China heart. Feel free to post in the dual sport forum.
Remove your rear sprocket and measure it. A little digging online tells me that the stock XL175 rear sprocket has the same dimensions as the XL185, which is a 428.
