I just got an email from Tim Marshall a well known storm chaser. Here is what he said on windspeeds and vehicles ending up on something other than their wheels:
1. Motorcycle: 50-100 mph depending on type, whether it is moving or not, and how good the kickstand is if parked.

I have gone to a dealer near me and they acknowledge the bulletin is a real deal. If your bike is out of warranty however and it frags you may have a fight on your hands to get it fixed without paying.
Here's what I found about this:
From:
Suzuki service Bulletin GSXR NO 126 Dated 12/10/2002. This is for the Hayabusa.

It says
Allow the motorcycle a full lane width. Although it is not illegal to share lanes with motorcycles, it is unsafe.
Of course read the chp site too...
