Default Battery not staying charged

I have a Suzuki DR Z400 with a dying battery. Well...the battery is new but it won't stay charged. It doesn't run down very fast. Maybe after several rides it will need to be recharged. Looking for anyone that has had the same problem. Could it be the rectifier or stator?
