Default Bike just died twice

Riding my 2007 Sportster XL Low and it just died. Started back up and rode 300 feet and died again. Started up and made it home with no more problems. Check wiring, O2 Sensers, and fuses and didn'y find anything. I have the TMAX and never hade a problem. Any Ideas?
&nbsp\\;
Thanks...

Did you check the Maxi-fuse for corrosion?

Try the batt. connections with a wrench,sometimes finger tight isn't tight.It could also be the vent in your gas cap isn't venting,if it does it again take off the cap and ride for a bit to see if it makes a difference.
