Just talk to it nice. They don't like being treated that way.?..HA.. Have a friend with a CVO Dyna that does that on a regular basis. He was showing off in front of Hardies for us. My thoughts was they were going to call the police. Then I looked down at the tac and it was at 6500 rpm and I backed back.
I ask him later in private did he do that often. He said, sure, why not. It's designed to do that.
Not sure about that but I plan on mine lasting forever for me.
Good luck. If it had broken something mechanical at that RPM, you would have known.

Sorry for the long delay guys. It’s really anti climatic. After changing the Crankshaft Position sensor we got spark but I still felt like I had a fuel issue. When we shot fuel into the cylinder it would fire and run for a few seconds then die. After several attempts I put it in the trailer and took it to my mechanic 2 days later. We backed it out of the trailer and he hit the start... it fired right up!!! I was in shock and told him he was a miracle worker, he thought I was punking him. So I can’t say for sure why it didn’t fire up immediately after replacing that sensor but I am back on the road now and much more careful on the throttle... for now 
maybe ripsaw was right, just needed to talk to her real sweet and then put her in time out for 2 days! LMAO

Too cool. What ever it takes. I have a 04 Toyota 4X4 I purchased new. Never a problem or been in for service. A year or so ago, I did not hold key in long enough and didn't start. Hit the key again and just cranked but no hint of it firing. I think it flooded. I tried later and the next day. Still no start.
Did not have time to mess with it but couple days later it fired right up.
FI systems on both cars and for sure older FI bikes once flooded get confused. I think proper procedure is to WOT never let up and crank.
Bet yours was just pouring fuel in it at WOT. When it died, the throttle body, manifold and cylinder where flooded with fuel. Took days to dry out.

Check the fuel quick disconnect at the fuel tank, that thing is a piece of crap, I had my engine die due to it moving, usually happened when passing cars on low gears and high revs.
That thing somehow moves and restricts the flow of fuel due to the engine vibrations, I had to disconnect and reconnect it to get the bike to fire again.
Give it a test, you won't lose anything
