AFRICA MIXTURE MAP

Q:I have a 2017 Africa Twin DCT with 1,600 miles on it. I live in Las Vegas at 2,500 feet elevation and ride up Mount Charleston to 8,000 feet elevation. I shut the bike off at the summit. When I go home, at about 3,300 feet it will start to get power loss, surging, searching, sputtering the rest of the way home. This has happened seven times. If I don’t shut the machine off at 8,000 feet, it will not have the power loss. Last time, coming home from the mountains, it starting doing the usual at 3,300 feet. I shut it off at 3,300 feet then restarted, and it was fine going home with no problems. What can I do? I’ve contacted Honda and nobody knows anything. I believe it may be an O2 sensor or Sensor A master power pressure or the computer?
