Exactly. It's really not that difficult to learn to deal with the wind, and it's a necessary skill if you want to ride on less than perfect days IMO. And it doesn't matter WHAT you ride. If you don't know how to deal with wind, you risk getting blown off the road (literally) or into oncoming traffic. Head on crash has same end result on a cruiser, sportie, 250, 14, V2K, moded, whatever.
