Red Light Flash and Loss of Power!

Red Light Flash and Loss of Power!
So I was riding around my neighborhood earlier today and everything was running ok. I was in 2nd gear with steady throttle then all of the sudden really fast the bike losses power and the red light turned on for a second. I pulled over trying to figure out wtf just happened, then I start going again. This time the same thing happens, but the bike dies after loss of power. Any ideas?

**Bike was sitting for a year or so, I drained the gas, oil, etc, and haven't noticed anything to strange, although the chain is a little loose.

Battery cables are pretty tight... the ****er did it again to me going up an over pass it wanted to die and i hit the throttle and it wasn't doing ****, the rpm kept dropping to 0... i got over the overpass and was sitting at the light, and the engine died, the lights etc were still on though... and then today i was in mid turn and the engine cut off and the rear wheel locked on me.
Does it sound like it could be the spark plug causing the engine to stop getting power?

This was much easier than I thought.... I knew batteries were important, but I didn't know a lose connection could cause backfires, the FI light and the engine dying at high rpm. Anyway, I pulled off the seat and found that one of my battery connections was lose. I recently installed a battery tender and I think the extra line on the battery helped the screw work lose. I tightened everything and the bike works great. I hope your problems are as simple to fix as mine.
