Seems like you have the right attitude with regards to doing the training and learning from your accident Simon so keep the head up. Most people will come off at some stage and everyone has had a moment where the survival instints have taken over so don't beat yourself up about it too much. Training and experience helps to keep you calm when things go wrong so do the training and maybe a track day and that will help you control those survival instincts better. Riding on the road is mostly about getting back in one piece rather than pushing your limits or going quick so maybe you need to change your riding style a bit. I've heard a lot of track riders don't ride on the road because they consider it too dangerous. Look at Lorenzo, he only got his road license last year I think.
