What charges the battery?

I know the Savage doesn't have an alternator but what charges the batter?  My battery keeps running down.  I've had a trickle charger on it but it still doesn't hold a charge.  It's a fairly new battery.  Any suggestions??

Thanks!

It has a 3 phase generator   Huh
it's a generator cause it has magnets  Cool

yeah, still scratchin' my head too.  Undecided

a lot of new batteries are bad from the get go.
but if it ain't chargin' it ain't gonna keep up no how

take a volt meter, put it across the battery terms and rev the bike up... didn't you guys say 4 or 5000 rpm's?  any who should go up in voltage.
