Oooooo...I wouldn't let the wife drive it without supervision if i were you Maybe she put something bad inside her (Like diesal or cheap 87 oct. gas) If she heard pinging or detonation would she be able to notice a problem and shut it down? Hope everything is OK and it's just a glitch in the ECU. Good Luck! Tell us outcome.

Man, I almost thought I had posted this About the same story as me with the truck, and me driving a Mustang GT, except it didn't take much to talk her into it as she loves HD stuff as her dad has recently got into HD. He has been a bikes nut all his life, and about 5 years ago bought a a Fat Boy and become sold on HD and the "club". Anyway, in about 9 months he will have a 100 Anna. two tone V-Rod sitting next to his Fat Boy.
