SOURCE: went to start bike after sitting for a few weeks
starter relay/solenoid stuck open and drained the battery. charge the battery and replace the relay/solenoid. Sometime you can tap on the relay lightly with a hammer and get it to unstick and work but it's best to replace it.

Sounds like your charging system is not charging the battery.
Put a volt meter on the battery, run the engine up to maybe 2,000 RPM. The voltage must be at least 13.8V, but not more than 14.5.
If that is all OK, your battery is worn out, and is not holding sufficient reserve. It would need to be replaced.
