FJRm'd and dangerous
Ed-
I'm hearing a lot of factors that are causing you to have these strange feelings: a VERY long winter layoff.....and that's after coming off a serious crash....without your normal riding gear....on salt covered streets with questionable traction. Naturally your brain's gonna tell you, "HEY, WAIT JUST A ******* MINUTE!! THIS DOESN'T FEEL RIGHT AT ALL.....AND IT REMINDS ME OF A VERY UNPLEASANT SITUATION".
I don't care how fearless you are, ANYBODY is gonna have some apprehension under thiose circumstances.
Re-read Madmike's post (#8). IMHO, you aren't gonna get any better advice than that. Know that you're not ****** up (at least no more than usual :glare: ) and while you might be able to overcome one of those factors pretty quick, it's going to take a little while longer....not too long....to overcome all those factors you noted and regain your confidence.
One small step at a time, dude. The riding season is just beginning. It's all good.
