Hi guys, I am basically a totally novice city rider, I have clocked less than 2000 kms on all 2 wheelers combined in my life and there's one thing I sort of struggle with and it's going fast even if the road is nearly deserted.
It's like I have a limiter that makes me fear for my safety past ~60km/hr, after that I feel like I won't be able to control the bike or brake in time if there's a pothole or something and it feels like an artificial barrier. How do you overcome that?
I feel like it's because of my inexperience and because I don't use my bike frequently and that I need to learn to brake better but again maybe some of you used to be like me and have better insight.
Thanks.
EDIT: As of 2019, I have discovered that most of my fear was because of my poorer quality helmet which had loud wind noises past that speed which created the fear inside me, as of replacing it I'm able to better hold my own at slightly higher speeds.
