I travel 787 multiple times a day, and I can honestly say I’m surprised it doesn’t happen more often. I can’t think of a single day in recent memory where I HAVEN’T seen a biker driving extremely recklessly. Not saying they all do, but out of all the roads I travel on a daily basis, 787 seems to draw the most reckless motorcycle riding ---

I had a really bad wobble recently on 378, I was getting on from Menands going towards 787 and while getting up to speed I hit some patches is the road and since I was accelerating there was little pressure on the front wheel and it started to wobble as soon on i hit them. Luckily I did not go down but it scared the shit out of me when it happened. ---

378 is a death trap in any vehicle. ---

they have been grinding down the bumps on 378 for the past couple of weeks now. That road has been like that for as long as I can remember and could use a new paving job but thats all they are doing is grinding each bump down. Just goes to show how cheap the DOT is ---

See this is where experience is necessary Wabbles don’t just happen unless your on a 90’s bike lol.Most bike have factory stabilizers now a days.the cause of most crashes on a straight rode like 787 its the person that blew the front tire was cut off by a car or he was trying to wheelie got it up and landed crooked. I have seen it happen a million times just never seen someone run into the guide rail and I wanted to say it really scares me that some of you talk the way you do 378 is a piece of cake to navigate down anytime its bumpy and have a lot of tar strips that cause a little slip and slide but thats it I wouldnt want be with you Guys riding up north and the road turns to gravel for 20 miles you guys would painic and probably crash ---
