So other day while out ride my bike cut out and turn out to be battery dead. I charged it up and it’s holding charge about 13v engine off and 13.7 and rising engine on tick over, but as soon I put headlights on the battery drops straight down to 12.4v and doesn’t rise with revs. Am I looking at short somewhere or charging problem on the R/R or stator.

Also when I start the bike and let it tick over the R/R gets very hot.
