What causes the bike to die? Is it fuel loss? Loss of spark?

i dont know what it is. i had a few people tell me it was a broken coil heating up and expanding which causes it to die then cool and start back up i am going to call them today and see if they checked that and might bring it to another shop

Did you do any work to the bike before the problem started happing?
My S.W.A.G. would be vapor lock or pinched,clogged fuel line.
