Hook up a volt meter then start pullin fuses till the draw is not there, at least this may narrow it down
The older you get do you notice you start chickening out way before the bike does

You say HOT battery, is that a new battery? Or a fully charged used battery?

Get a new battery. If it drains, then you have a problem when the bike. :thumb:

easy way is disconnect it and see if it  still drains
or disconnect bat lead  and put a meter between see if it is still drawing power with key off
