Welcome to the forums.... I don't know of anything to help there. We 50 mph gusts over here in the dust bowl, and no probs with mine. I removed the center stand off of mine though and just use the side stand..

Just for info. the week I got my bike we where fishing in Michigans Upper Penninsula and had a really bad storm with gurst up to 70 mph. The center stand kept the bike up great.

The only thing I could think of when I read this post was to either put the bike with the right side toward the wind, or point it toward it. But then I realized that you can't predict what direction the wind is moving. What about keeping the bike indoors? I mean that is if your wife doesn't mind.

i think the wind up there must be real bad because that guy only posted once over a year ago. maybe it blew him off the face of theplanet...lol
