My freshly re-charged battery read 12.6 volts on the multimeter with the ignition off. After cranking the bike, the battery showed 11.8 and voltage slowly decreased the longer the bike ran. No wild fluctuations, just a steady decrease.

Does this indicate a bad battery that can't keep a charge, an alternator that isn't supplying a proper charge, or something else?
