Something happened.... weird
What you described is no doubt fuel related. The engine was starving for fuel over 2k rpm and going lean. Bad fuel could cause it bat I'm really curious if it was a full tank or almost empty when it happened.
Full tank could have been causing an issue with the vent not working properly in this heat. (El Paso here too). If it was low in the tank I might thing bad fuel or sediment blocking an intanke.
Either way the first thing I would start with is shining a light in there and making sure the tank is clean. Then a fuel cleaner too. Just in case bad fuel or water had somehow gotten mixed in, it could flush it out.
She got you home, that's the big thing. Glad to hear it. I'd like to stay up to date to determine if there is a problem or this was a one time event. Good luck.

I'll update this post if I find out anything new.

+1 on the vapor lock..........it's been really hot out the last week or so, longer rides, high temps, it's possible.
