If very serious about it get into some schools. Automotive/small engine repair school at local community college is easiest & best start, progress from there. If ya just wanna **** around then get a junker & a manual & get it runnin/fixed up...crap like that...its all the same, somewhat--& be ready to fail--lots.

If you have a Harley get yourself the factory service manual for it. It won't exactly make bed-time reading (unless you really cannot get to sleep!), but browsing through it you will find the sorts of easy things you can do, like basic servicing, then who knows?
