More likely to be your ignition coils. They heat up and expand this can cause an open circuit which will close up again when it has cooled down. Although, a bad charging system may cause this problem. Check the battery voltage with engine switched off ( approx 12 volts) and with the engine running (approx 14 volts) If you are getting 14 volts then your battery is dead, if you aren't, then your charging system has a fault.

Sounds like a fuel problem. Try replacing the fuel filter.
Check all the lines and the tank vent.
SOURCE: Replaced stator, brand new battery, died after 10k ride
sounds if regulator is not working or poor connections within charging circuit
SOURCE: dropping cylinder at 10rpm and possible generator /stater problem
It seems the charging system of your bike is not working
Recharge the battery and thn fit it in the bike and start it and check the charging rate.
Remember with lights 'on' it drains power from the battery butthe charging system of theengine takes over i.e. if its working alright, with your explanation, its for sure the charging system is not functioning.
Chekc the altenator and the rectifier.
SOURCE: new stator cover bike wont start
useing a multimeter set to d.c check your charge at the battery whith out the motor running it should read above 12 volts determine the voltage stored in the battery with the meter stil conected hit the start button if the meter shows a dramatic drop in voltage its almost certain that the battery is shot howevwer if the voltage does not drop & it wont start bump start it conect the meter still set on dc increase the revs asyou do this the voltage should climb to 13.50 if it does & maintains 13.50 to 13.65 the chargeing system can be declared ok & you only need replace the battery however if it goes above 14 volts the voltage regulator is faulty & cooking the battery so you will need to replace both
SOURCE: Loss of power when in gear
Sounds like the carb is frozen or the ignition timing is way out (check distributor and loosen the clamp, turn it slightly with the engine running until it idles and revs up nice) . Reset the ignition timing, if that does not cure it, a carb rebuild is on the cards.
Vote for me if this helps, thanks.
