Low speed being 30 for a bastard pothole and about 40 for a sharp bump on a single-track road. Worth noting that in 13500 miles it's only happened twice and both of those were when the bike was jarred pretty hard by unexpected road conditions.

I expect, as Specter mentioned, that it was some kind of sensor rather than a wiring issue.

Could it be the side stand sensor? Haven't tried at which angle it gets triggered but it certainly cuts off the power.

No, the sidestand sensor would just switch the power off. This activated some kind of error code that came up on the screen.

Not much help for the OP but I figured out what my issue was.

My seat latch has a manufacturing defect and the microswitch (seriously, why?) was throwing errors if my weight got jarred off the seat.

See my thread here. Can you get by with bypassing it there in the UK?

I just strapped the seat down with a bungee cable and it fixed the issue, next time I drop in to EEMC I'll see if I can get them to bend the bracket back into place again (it's currently broken because two assholes tried to steal the bike and this apparently involved one of them jumping onto it like they were in a Jackie Chan movie or something).

Got the undefined fault on my Experia over the holiday weekend.  Was riding two up through about 10 miles of loose gravel (road construction) and then a little easy two track to check out some trouty water, so I turned off the bike in there when we stopped.   All of this was low speed due to the surface and lots of vibration.

As soon as I got back to pavement and started speeding up, exactly at 30mph get the fault and loss of power.  Cycled the ignition, got moving again and same exact thing.

Finally, on the third try, I cycled the kill switch and also switched the driving mode, and then it was fine after that, including a 2 hr ride home the following day.

I'm assuming it was the vibration and something to do with the IMU unit, since switching modes got me going again.  I'll take it in to the dealer this fall, see what they find.
