If it was barely able to crank over, it would squirt gas in but not ignite the mixture.
I suggest looking over the plugs.

BTW, welcome to the club. My 2008 XB12X had its battery crap out on a cold friday evening.
The battery was only two months old but at least the H-D dealer took care of me and got me a new one.

Fouled plugs maybe?

Always 3 things to check: spark u can get a tester or pull the plug, second pull the air filter and squirt some starter fluid into the carb, 3rd check compression.
