Default Wind Control

Just took my bike out of storage where it's been over a year now. The Marine Corp will do that to you. I took my '05 M50 out on the highway and within 10 mins of riding, I nearly got swept of my bike because of wind. Going about 70 MPH and a cross wind came out of nowhere and nearly pushed me of my bike. Can anyone tell me how they deal with it. I'm 6 ft 220 lbs and my bike is roughly 540 lbs. Also will this matter with a heavier bike?
Thanks a lot
