Default Shutdown

While accelerating from a stop I hit the rev limiter and backed off on the throttle, up shifted but the bike shut itself off.
I have a 2015 Breakout no motor mods just V&H big bore exhaust and HD big air intake/filter.
any guidance is appreciated, I know the basics of checking for fuel and spark, but it it is a cpu controlled item I would need an assist.
thanks all.

Better answers may come, but if I have a problem with something I don't know, I will reset the ECM first. You can do that simply by removing the mainfuse or
disconnecting the battery, if you have an alarm on the bike, first turn it off by turning the ignition on with the nearby fob before disconnect or remove the fuse.
