Question 2012 vrsc dx

Dear All,
I purchased a 2012 VRSCDX last week, put 200 miles on it and had an issue as follows:

While decelerating on highway speed, or sometimes when making a turn and pressing the clutch, then the bike STALLS...it happened 5 times in 200 miles...it is annoying and can be dangerous as you are on a turn and slow speed and you loose the momentum and can fall!

Any ideas?
Thanks
Luiz

luiz I read something about that on 1130cc.com. It was some sensor on the motor causing it to stall. You can go browse that forum and get the answer you need.
