At idle my lights are fine now but when I throttle up, the lights started flashing again. I took the lead wire from the switch off the right light and touched it to the left light and the flashing in the left bulb stopped but the right one continued to flicker.

The only thing that I can think of is that I just have a bad bulb in the right side? I've tightened all the connections and cleaned the ground, I even have the lights grounded with the voltage regulator on the same bolt. I don't think it is the switch if its just the one bulb but any takes on the situation are more then welcome.
I don't think those lights are expensive. You could get a new one to try it out. Might be something loose inside and you're pulsing is more from a loose connection and the vibrations at WOT, not necessarily an electrical issue.
