Stalled from 4th to 2nd

Braking for a red light and down shifting from 4th going about 55mph. Bike just shut off. I was able to fire it right back up. No funny noises, could be electrical.

Any suggestion? or would this warrant a trip back to the dealer?

Mine did something similar couple of weeks ago. I"d just been accelerating hard down a stretch of road then braked quite heavily to a stop. Bike cut and restarted immediately. Dont know. I"d expect it would mis-fire or splutter if it was fuel surge and the pump had sucked a bit of air in. None of that,just like it had been turned off. Mystery. Hasn"t happened again yet!!!
