Not uncommon. Check your kickstand. When you hit a big bump, it'll bounce down for a split second which is enough to engage the safety interlock. Others have found one of the springs broken or just missing. Others have just bypassed the safety switch and called it a day.

Definitely going to be electrical. Start at the battery and start working your way through the system looking for anything loose.

Let's clarify something though. Does the engine die, or just the cluster resetting?

uh im guessing he pushed the button and it was smooth. maybe even wiped the chain lube garbage off a lubed it as well. how else would you do it? rear tire on stand bike in gear "rolling" then start whacking all the controls and safety switches involved in that system. who ever said start at the battery must love chasing electrical crap. im sure he was trying to say start at the source, Your ignition fuse, jump to the safety kill items that will not let you start the bike or kill it when you stop whether it is a button you push or the gear/stand safety, etc. i can count the breaks in that system on one hand You got it buddy. seriously get a paddock stand and start tapping stuff to simulate the hit

I said start at the battery because you wouldn't believe the number of times, both bikes and cages, that I've seen a loose connection at a battery be the problem. I've even seen batteries that are damaged and a shock to them shorts them for a split second. Don't rule out the simple stuff.

Loose connection between the main harness and front subharness. Seen it many times.
