That's exactly what I was trying to explain, it hasn't happened when cold, or from a take off. I even tried to recreate the issue yesterday by down shifting into third and coasting like that many times and it wouldn't do it again.

Interesting..and only in 3rd?
I've been trying my best to recreate the issue, took most of yesterday off work, did an oil change and final drive oil change, then road a good 100+ miles constantly trying to get it to do it again. It will not, I'll chock this one up to the motorcycle gremlins.
Oil with 7000 miles is most likely just as good, done some Blackstone lab samples in the past with 10K miles, and bikes were driving hard and had excellent results.
The phobia most have(including me) is that for the sake of erring on the potential wrong side, and ease of operation, every 5K number, I change it.
Knowing that if I failed to replace at 5K I have plenty miles of reserve miles left :)
But good that you have resolved the potential gremlin.
I just do not believe it is the oil, otherwise, it would be most likely a consistent problem, and I do not think the oil can differentiate between gears.
