Some of you may remember that after 10 months of searching I finally found a replacment for my wrecked yellow 2002. It is a 2003 in silver, with somewhere around 4300 miles. Awesome bike, sounds and looks great but...I've never been confident on a bike after the wreck. It took about 6 months to heal and now all I think about when going into a turn is, don't screw up!!! I don't thi8nk I've put 200 miles on it in the year and a half I've owned it. So, I've been thinking about selling it. I know I'll regret it as soon as it's gone but it costs me about $500 a year to just sit in the shop.

Any advice?

 

Track day, or some rider coaching?

 

Yeah, get practice in safe environment you don’t have anxiety. Parking lot exercises, bike-handling clinic, trackday in C-group with personalised coaching. Lots and lots of low-stress sessions. Some people takes years to recover, and that’s OK. Go at pace that’s always comfortable for you. Don’t push beyond that.
