Howdy,

Check the cables and connections at the starter post with the red (BATT) cable and two big black wires. That is the most likely place for a bad connection that would cause complete loss of power.

Get a test light and carry it with you. When this happens again check the big black wire at the ignition switch. You should get a brightly lit test light. Got voltage? If yes, the problem is the key switch (the ignition is not fused). If no, look again at the starter and battery connections.
