Disconnect the earth lead from the bike battery. Check the voltage across the terminals of the battery.

Then switch the test meter to show DC amps, connect one test probe to the bike battery negative terminal and the other to the bike wiring loom at disconnected negative connector you removed from the battery. With the ignition off you should be seeing something lower than 50 mA.
