Man...
Take a turn at a decent clip and along comes a 25mph gust of wind to the ground you go, it all happens so fast your life won't even have time to flash past your eyes but I can guarantee the impact is painful.
Well, maybe all that extra fairing will absorb some of it.
I wonder too, how it acts at 50mph when along comes an 18-wheeler.

I have been in all of these situations with this bike in a 3/4 faired (read dustbin nose, full tail) configuration. it has so far performed perfectly well and no crashes. 25-35mph side winds are not uncommon where I live and the trees and lakes make them pretty unpredictable, but it is something you learn to deal with if you have a bike. The semi truck effect is the biggest variable, but Semis in oncoming traffic at 50mph are not as bad as semis on the freeway going the same direction 75mph.
