While I have not had any major accidents on the road, I grew up riding dirt bikes. Even after dumping it and being ok physically it can be a mental hurdle. For more road riding, I would maybe suggest if you do decide you want to get back on a bike again, maybe start from the beginning? Take...

Would anyone happen to have the Kickstand return spring length. Part number 90506-26270-00. Thanks

Do you still have the rear rack by chance?
