It was not doing this before you did the cam and other stuff.
So first, check for loose connections on anything that you worked on.
If nothing is loose, then something is drawing to much current.
What all did you replace?

and posting here, what I posted on your other thread
.
When it shuts off, what is the dash doing?
Do not turn off the key. Are there any flashing lights?
What light and how many times it flashes can help find the problem.
.
The (CEL)Check Engine Light will only blink if there is a Fuel/Ignition issue.
The gear indicator blinks if there is a transmission or driveline issue.

Have a good day

I was working on the snorkel on the bike and noticed on the passenger side of the bike on the rear of the engine there is what seems to be a ground wire that is quite hott. Is this normal?
