Question Electrical problem?

I have a 2006 Ultra with 45,000 miles. Two months ago I had to replace the battery; I had noticed that if I would not ride it for several days it would be difficult to start so I was not surprised when the battery was completly dead after being left in the shed for four days. Until this last week I have ridden almost every day; after sitting for four days my new battery is dead.

The bike has been shut down with nothing left on except the alarm system. When riding the volt meter shows that the charging system is working well. Has anybody had this problem before? Any ideas on what is draining the battery?
