Just a suggestion, take it easy on the Harley and get yourself one of those crotch rockets, I've seen guys do burnouts on those bikes till there was no tire left.

Buy a sport bike, and give your soft tail to somebody that will treat it right!

My suggestion would be not to try something if you don't have any idea how to do it.

My diagnosis is ADD.
