I find this really interesting. I have had 2 pretty serious motorbike accidents (a bus and a tractor. Poor choice of targets I admit). I was lucky to get away with nothing more than broken bones - albeit a fair few of those.
I remember getting back on the bike after the first one, and having worked myself up about it for a little while, the only thing I really remember was how amazing it felt to be 'free' again.
I guess what I am trying to say is that the anticipation of the thing was much much worse than the thing itself. Keep to a relatively safe environment, and let yourself remember why you loved biking in the first place.
NB. Purely anecdotal, I have no doubt that my experience of "getting back on the bike" is different to many others. Just don't convince yourself it's an impossibility.
PS. (I don't have a motorbike anymore, though I plan to buy one again at some point. I have had a little ride since the second - just no money to purchase a bike of my own)
