Say the ech to rip wiring is OK since the bike will run. So that says a wire can't reconnet itself so as to restart. Heart beat of a computer bike is the crank sensor. Warms up, stalls, cools, restarts sound like a crank sensor problem.

1. Diagnose: Ohmmeter in pocket, bike stops, instantly pull the crank sensor apart and ohm the C/S. In the morning, ohm it cold. Are the readings the same?

2. Throw parts at it: Hard to find a C/S out of spec, but when changed, running is solved.

3. What Jwooky said: Fastest way to vacuum lock is top the tank of to the brim. Should stall closer to home than when it warms up to running temp.

Electronic techs use a "Freeze Spray" that you could carry on the bike and when it stalls spray an area Crank Sensor and see if it starts.
Very usefull stuff diagnosing heat related issues. Used a ton of it back in the 80 when I was in that end of the industry.
 
It's probably going to be your crank sensor, my 2007 bulldog did the same thing. Installed once the bike got warmed up and then it would not crank for about 10-15 minutes till cool down a little bit. The way to check is pulled you crank sensor out. It's a little Allen wrench. It sits on the front of your motor down to the left. I'll send a picture if needed. Spray some cooling spray on it. Stick it back in. You'll see the bike will crank right back up. It's very easy to replace. I believe I paid $69 for it
