Starter help

I am having a weird issue, parked the bike, working great, it was on a trickle charger for a few months. Now when I hit the starter everything goes black/dead. wait a few minutes and display returns, still now starting. I had ridden it this past weekend after a jump, had a hesitation when at a constant speed, not under acceleration or idle, then I was riding slow and it died and now the issue above. weird, any ideas, short in system, relay, BMW ghosts of riding past......thanks
 
Welcome to the forum!
I always start with- “how old is the battery”?
You do describe a hint of a possible bad connection at the battery.
Let us know.
