What kind of wind can particularly destabilise a motorcycle through sudden changes in lateral force?

Correct answer

Gusty crosswinds.

Gusty crosswinds. They can abruptly change the force on a motorcycle and deflect its path. Take particular care leaving tunnels or sheltered areas and meeting or passing large vehicles: wind can strike again as their shelter ends. Adapt speed and avoid abrupt manoeuvres. Wind from other directions can also be dangerous.
