Default Stalling at maximum effort stops

Hey guys,

This has happened to me three times. During a practice maximum effort stop from roughly 60 mph the bike slowly dies. I have practiced these stops many times from many different speeds, but it has only done it three times. All three times were from higher speed stops. I was afraid that I had let out the clutch, or hit the kill switch, but this third time, I'm positive none of that happened. I can't figure out what happened. It's probably something stupid that I'm doing but I'd love it if anyone has had this happen to them and can shed some light on this. Thanks
