Check to see if the plug wires are rubbing the bottom of the tank.
Without knowing what year/model bike you have, what mods have been done, or any other info other than it being a CVO, there really isnt much in the way of help that people can give you.

Yeah, plug wires as mentioned above. Also the wiring plug in connector under the tank behind the throttle body. They give problems. Pull it apart, clean very well, lube with dielectric grease and reconnect.
Check engine light on?
Any codes?

First thing(s) that I'd check is the VOLT meter. Is it reading above "12" at idle and does the needle move upward towards "14" when you rev up the engine?
Next, are you sure that your battery is fully charged and does the VOLT read at least "10" when you turn on the ignition before starting?

The sensor in the throttle grip or like someone else said the plug on the throttle body is a known issue, peel back the covering and look for a bare wire, wiggle each wire with the bike running to see if one broken inside the insulation, look for a broken pin inside the plug and then clean and grease it up. Sorry for the lack of punctuation lol.

FWIW, I had a '00 Ultra that would sometimes quit running, and a other times would be difficult to restart until after it had sat for a few minutes.
This turned out to be a faulty "kill" handlebar switch.
Never had a "low power issue" but this sounds like a fault somewhere in your ignition system.
You need to check for "coding" and see if that offers any assistance.
