| Hello Brogins,
I had the same problem with my Honda VTR1000 Fire Storm.
Battery went dead/flat and would not hold a charge, replaced with a new battery which was ok for a while then the same problem happened again. I asked my friend who is qualified electronics and electrical wiz kid and upon him testing the bike he found the Regulator/Rectifier to be at fault and had gone open circuit or something like that which caused the battery to be overcharged/fried. Had I known this to begin with it would have saved the new replacement battery from being ruined.
In any case if I were you I would get both the battery and Regulator/Rectifier checked and replaced under warranty if needed.
