Default Freewheeler shutting down

I have a 2015 freewheeler trike and have had some issues with it shutting down. I have heard others have had issues with the bike shutting down in a curve. Mine is shutting down sometimes in rain, sometimes just a beautiful day. No reason. Any thoughts? Harley cannot give me any answers.

The physics while turning on a trike are different than on a two wheeler. Fuel sloshing away from the pickup? Does it happen when the tank is full? Just my WAG.

Just an idea for ya that might help. Scroll down to the section called Harley Davidson Motorcycles. In that section look for the following entry, it might be of some help to ya: Tri Glide & Freewheeler Models

Could be any number of things. If it's in warranty, havecthrcdealer evaluate it.

Could be:
- loose connection somewhere
- wire shorting out somewhere
- coil
- low fuel
- clogged fuel filter
- ECU
- Could be you are hitting the kill switch...been there, done that
