Default Lost power at 70 mph

I have an 06 EGC with the 95" inch kit... Had a HD SE race tuner and dyno... For the first time ever, I had my bike die at a stop sign... When it died I lost all power, it would fire back up... Finally got it running and got on highway... After about 10 miles it lost all power at 70mph, speed and tach went to 0, radio turned off, but it started up on it's on and keep going... Same exact thing happened a minute later... Made it home with no more issues... Any ideas why or what is causing this?

I'd start by checking that battery connections are clean and tight- also the other ends of those cable, the - to the ground point and the positive to the starter.

next check the electrical under the left side cover looking for loose/dirty/corroded connections.

I am wondering if something shorted, causing the main circuit breaker to trip- which will then reset itself, but that usually takes more than a minute.

or a loose wire.

Sounds like a bad system relay switch to me.... $11.90 at the dealer.

Check the connection of the quick disconnect fuel line to the bottom of the gas tank.
