Midwest boys long ago induced the digestive enzymes to cope with PBR.
"What'll YOU have?"
As for worst wind ever, I have both the standard K100 and a 2002 K1200LT. The stretch between Albuquerque and Gallup on I 40 regularly exceeds 50 mph winds (usually out of the southwest, with gusts that are hurricane force, particularly around where Rte. 6 meets the Interstate). The K1200LT is much better at slipping through and resisting that wind than either the '96 Goldwing I had, or the K100.
I have a National Cycle small deflector screen on the Nekkid Brick, and the technique I use in the high wind is to get my jewels up on the tank and lean forward so that I am practically laying on the tank with my knees almost touching the grips of the tiller. The idea is to get my weight both forward and down, and to use the push-pull on the bars to countersteer as one would with strap-ons, i.e., forcing the tipover with the front gyro instead of trying to be fast at moving my weight around. It's a little tiring to ride like that, but the bike responds much more quickly as compared to sitting bolt upright and shifting my weight to lean or turn.
Also, I try to be moving at least 10 MPH faster than the 18 wheelers so as to blast through their wake turbulence quickly.
As we used to say in the Air Force. "Prepare to copy CAT message: Michael Echo Oscar Wyoming."
