Homeowners insurance only covers non-license plated equipment. ( Tractors, ATV's etc.) Typically not the bikes and cars.
Sorry to see that happen. I worry about that at times but never had one blow over.
Like someone said only seen a scooter blow over. I was in a parking lot and watched a little 50cc scooter blow over. It was not a big wind so the owner probley thought someone pushed it over.

I saw a Touring Bike get blown over at a popular bike destination near Vegas. It's out in the middle of the desert and a huge dust devil kicked up while I was near my bike lighting a cigar.
I was on the right side of the bike lighting up when I saw the dust devil and just leaned into the bike pushing it against the side stand. The dust devil hit the Road King that was about 10 feet from mine and knocked it over.
When it was all said and done, one bike down and about 50 pounds of dirt dumped on his and my bike (the only two bikes there at the time, maybe that place isn't that popular).
