Like Schmidty said: Ignition pick-up, or the coil. Both are indicative with working, getting hot, not working then cooling and working again.
There's a coil test procedure in the Sticky section of the Technical threads.
If the VOES went bad, the bike would likely feel like it lost power, or was running doggy.
