Smile 1985 FLT short?

What would make the tack go haywire when touching either the throttle or the switches? Seems to only do this when first starting the bike up. I have changed the switches, and coil. Someone told me that it might be in the ignition switch, but it does'nt make the tack go crazy when i wiggle it. Sounds like a ground problem but I have no idea where to look. Any help would be great!!!

Another day. Took off the fairing, and opened up the speedo bazel. Disconected all the quick connects, and cleaned them. Put it all back together, still does the same thing. Think I'm going to order the right handle bar wire harness (the guy that changed the switches did'nt do the wires, just the switches.
