Default Breakout won't idle

2014 breakout 103, stage 3, vans & Hines big radius
Cold starts are fine but after I've ridden for a while and stop shut it down for anywhere from seconds to 5-15 minutes the rpm's won't stay high enough to idle. This happened once a couple weeks ago and then again today. Any ideas?
