Alternator may have burned out not causing the charge or it could be the regulator not sending the current around properly can take of the alternator for a look for any burn scarring is noticeable can the check the voltage of the battery when running if dying is a sign of alternator not working is an easy enough job just be careful with the seal dont break it as may result in oil leak also when removing case if a bit tight a tip with a mallet will loosen it enough may be some oil loss but wont be much hope it can help lol also alternator is located left side of the bike middle fairing will need to come off and cover for the small sprocket also will be behind the casing

Bike will start but stops after a second or two

If it was used "once or twice all summer", and you left the ga in it, the carbs are probably gummed/clogged up.
When gas sits, it's components start to separate, and it turns almost into a varnish.
This starts clogging up the jets and ports in the carb.

You probably need to "boil out" the carbs

My savage had a clogged muffler. Dump some seafoam and stabilzer in the tank with etlenol treatment in it.
Bad gas??? Put some 91 in it.

Bike not firing properly, plugs fouled

If you used the choke to start the bike last winter, you probably fouled the plugs. Depending on the age of the plugs, you can either clean and re-gap them or replace them with new, which also have to be checked for gap.
Secondly, if you did not run the bike out of fuel after starting it, chances are you have some build up in the carb jets. New, clean fuel and Techron or Seafoam gas treatment will help if it's not too bad. Follow directions on the can. I personally used Seafoam but Techron is recommended by Honda. Be sure to mix per instructions, which on Seafoam is 1 oz. per gal.
