This is very common on Police electraglides also, especially on the evos. I had a 97 that did the exact thing you describe. It was attributed to a chaffed wire in the main harness near the the right side of the neck if I remember correctly. Dealer fixed it quick.

Wasn't there a recall for the bank angle sensor around that time?
I had a 2000 FLTR, and I _think_ that got replaced under recall.
If I were you, I'd check with the nearest HD dealership to see if there is still a recall on that one. You want to have your VIN number along with you.
Just something to check out…
Could also be a faulty ground...

You can also check for recalls here. You will have to register before you can use it. Then you wont even have to leave your house,lmao. If its not recalled, I would start searching for shorts.
