H-D Electrical Failure

Bike cuts out, complete electric failure, approximately 30-45 seconds after leaving an extended red light, or pulling hills during hot weather conditions in Phoenix and nearby hills. Will sit for 2-4 minutes, and breaker will reset on it's own, bike starts and runs great until the next extended light or heavy hill. Charging system is putting out 13.6 volts. The 40 Amp breaker was replaced by a 50 Amp on a recall. No faults noted on engine scanner

Should I try a 60 amp breaker?

Is the Stator in the charging system bad?

Are lower fairings and heat deflectors under the seat trapping heat around the breaker area?

Can I get some kind of blower fan installed under the seat?
