More than likely your 7 volt regulator has failed. See: 7 Volt Regulator

Re: 82 wing temp and fuel guage
Do you have a thermostat installed, and are you running coolant/anti freeze, is your radiator blocked, does the thermo fan cut in, is the right level of coolant in the radiator and expansion tank?
How far do you ride before the temp gets to red- have you checked the 7 volt regulator or is it direct to 12 volts?

Re: 82 wing temp and fuel guage
like i posted earlyer guages were working yes radiator has all new fluid,pump ,thermostate ,fan works fine its the guages the problem i ordered a new regulator for guages but i have a question if the guages burn out temp and gas will anything else get harmed if i run the bike without the guages they will be hooked up still but after i change regulator and guages still do not work then i burnt out the element that runs the guages so got shocked with 12 volts one to many time will it be ok to run the bike without these guages will fan still come on to cool engine gas is no problem i can use mileage for that part till i can get another set
