Yes, I also take it a step further. I check the HOURLY forecast.

Potholes, big cracks in pavement etc all make a motorcycle riders life more difficult than it already is. Sportbike suspensions are on the stiffer side as it is so you feel every bit of compression and misalignment in the pavement. In short is really sucks. As far as holding on, it more so about being prepared for it. Contrary to belief, you DO NOT want to have a super tight grip or a "death grip" on the handlebars. If I'm going over a big bump or a pothole I get my ass up off the seat just a bit and bend my knees which in terms acts as a buffer to decrease the "kick in the balls and ass" feeling.
