Stalls after freeway?

Whenever i get off the freeway when i come to a stop my bike stalls. It rides fine all day on normal city driving, but when i get over 65 it stalls when i stop. I know my battery needs to be replaced but i dont think it would cause the stall. I rode almost 100 miles today and I only went on the freeway for 1 mile and got off and it stalled.

2000 R6

New plugs, oil change and carbs cleaned ( all this is what the shop said they did )

Update:

would a fuel filter cause it to do that. It ran fine for the entire day

Update 2:

No it wasnt fine before i took it there, it was stalling and wouldnt start which is why i took it there.

If you have a few minutes you can look at all my questions and all the problems i have had. Today was the first day i was able to ride it after the last time i picked the bike up.

They put tape over the air intake which i just noticed. He blamed the problems i had after returning the bike to them to fix for the 3rd time on the k&n filter. So i put the stock back in today and took the tape off.

    Was it fine BEFORE it went into the shop for service?

    Sounds to me like they may have messed with your carbeurator jets and tweaked some PMS or needle valve settings.

    V-Twin carbs are best tuned when your bike is hooked up to a dyno machine.

    Does the bike start right up after a stall. Not telling you anything you don't know, but a bad (weak) battery will cause lots of goofy problems. My bike would cutout at speed & lock the rear wheel. Scary. Turns out my petcock was bad, changed the fuel filter also. Runs great now.

    An over oiled air filter will cause trouble also.

    Fuel to air ratio. Get a shop to dyno it.
