Battery on 2020 TBR7 not holding a charge.

I'm hoping someone can help me out here.

My 2020 TBR7 is new and I've only ridden it a couple times. It starts out running fine, but then it starts to get boggy and then it dies every time I stop.

It then struggles to start and run again. I then check the battery and it is drained.

It will still recharge when I plug it into a charger, though.

I would love and appreciate any and all help with this.

Thanks,
Mark

this happened to me on mine......here's what i did......checked all connections to and from battery and charging system, perhaps run a new ground strap (mine was so so), used star washers on key spots, check battery and if need be buy new battery, spray ncp2 on exposed areas or equivalent......

charging system is mediocre on these bikes, check output to battery while running, if i remember correctly it is in the 14v range... also it takes a good 15+ minutes run time (@ higher rpms than idle) to start to do much to charge the battery
