Default shut off when riding
Riding home on the highway and the bike shuts off. But it sounded like the motor was running slowly. Still heard exhaust but I had no power. Bike doesn't start and lights are dim. So just a battery or more??

What's happening when you try to start it? Have you tried charging the battery? Checked all oil/liquid levels? Checked gas?

I just got it home. It's on a charger now. Everything works. Just real faint. When I go to start it it just sounds of tapping rapidly

Check your R/R and connections. My guess is that on the 30m mark it'just gets too hot and the bike shuts off.
It would also explain the drained battery.
