Default New Battery dying 80kz750

Newest issue. I redid wires that I found fried (3 ground wires) One to Regulator, one to solinoid and one to ground. Now Regulator gets warm when driving bike. I need to take volt meter to battery, I do suspect its charging.

Anyway, I fully charged my 2 week old battery on Sunday. Turned off bike and took out key.

Today I pulled bike out and battery has enough juice to turn on lights. However I get very slow turnover and could not start. Battery tests very low.

Could a new battery lose charge that fast ?

Also, bike always turns over very very slow. Are the starters that weak on this model?
thanks.
