Default Acting up...

After washing the bike off today I took it for a ride and it started acting up. I noticed that the power kinda kept cutting in and out just slightly and then the engine shut off a few times. The FI light would come on and occasionaly the bike would turn off completely. The reserve fuel tank also came on a few times out of the whole ordeal, and I just filled her up not too long ago. It feels almost as if its not getting enough fuel? Any ideas on whats wrong? It usualy only happens at speed, i noticed it the most at 55mph, where it would sputter and sometimes stop. Then a little sputtering at 30mph. Sometimes I could fix it by pulling the clutch in and just coasting for a bit. Hopefully its nothing serious.

What could this be? I know i avoided spraying water into the air intakes, but maybe it got in there, idk. Would this cause the bike to turn off like this though?

Check your spark plugs and maybe even your battery connections to make sure they're not loose.

Check your air cleaner.

The positive battery terminal was pretty loose, that fixed it AFAIK, gonna have to put some road time to see if that was the problem.
