If you live near a fairly good sized high school and they have an auto shop look into a night school auto shop course. I learned most of my auto fixins in these courses and bikes arn't really alot different. Same princepals usually so you adjust for size and locatrion or parts. But it's usually preaty cheap and a great place to learn..

Good advice, I did the same thing with the local community college. Had a good time, too.
There is no such thing as a bad motorcycle.
