With tools like vises, anvils and such, I recommend keeping a running wish list and reading up on quality older models, adding notes to your list as you learn more. The quality of older American made pieces is usually superior to new (usually imports) and they are often much less expensive. When you go to a swap meet or flea market, you can check your list and be ready for a great deal when you find one. The Northeastern and Midwestern US have strong manufacturing and machining history. As the old pros retire (and, sadly, pass away) those tools come up to serve another generation. While it makes sense to not buy everything you think you'll need up front, waiting until you need something can limit your choices and lead to a purchase under some level of duress. I recommend acquiring and setting aside the money and knowledge so that you can seize upon the opportunity to buy the best.

For me, I grew up around bikes. My dad was in an MC that split up right before I was born, so I had a lot of uncles. I ride his 68FLH that he bought in 79. My first bike was a 64XLCH and after a bad motor vehicle accident kickstarting that bike was a problem, so he passed down the bike early since he has another bike. I bought my XLCH when I was 19 but got married young and the bike sat for a while before I dove into the rebuild when I was 23. Then the accident and I spent a couple years riding a wheelchair and a hospital bed, but as I got better my desire to ride only grew and I didn't really ride "full time" till I was about 30. I'm a Harley guy, but I'm not against other people riding what they like. 2 wheels is 2 wheels and as long as your knees are in the breeze, life behind bars ain't so bad. I think my dad knew a Bill Miller that used to race. We're from NY so not that far away.

I bought a bike in boxes that came with 5 sets of carbs in varying condition. I told my carb rebuild guy, make me two good sets. You can keep extra parts. A few years later, doing another project, the carbs needed some parts. Yup. I should have kept them. Lucky I reminded my carb guy and he did have them in his stash.

Been on bikes for all of my early 10s and now I’m 40 and got my Ninja. I love bikes. Fun to ride and even funner when I get to go riding with my Father. He was always the mechanic which I picked up on some. I do all my own maintenance and it’s nothing for me to ride when there is snow out which isn’t very often in OKLAHOMA as some states. As long as the roads are cleared I’m on my bike. However as a dad of 5 I don’t do too much crazy stuff anymore and of course when family goes places I’m not driving my bike. But there is nothing like the open road. Plus I drive 100miles a day to work which yep on the bike. 5 days a week daytime sometimes and night time sometimes. You learn a lot driving for years but you can’t predict everything but that’s the adrenaline rush for me. Also dude I subscribed to you just last week when I seen the Bible versus.

I have been riding since I was 12 starting with a Kawasaki dirt bike the first bike I bought was a 78 sportster new when I was in the Navy. Then over the years a Pan chopper, another sportster traded for a 1969 Sportster chopper, a new 1983 dresser, a 1985 new softail, then a new 1995 Springer softail. I am hoping to get another bike when I get better. I am now wishing I had kept all my bikes I had over the years. As for the bike you looked at in the Harley dealer you can see what I meant about the blue color. Keep on keeping on, God bless you and I hope you get back into selling bikes.

I learned about tools decades ago. I would borrow a tool, break it and wind up buying someone else a new tool. 45 years later I've got lots of tools, still adding tools.

A great 'tool rule' I learned was to buy the best I can afford, none fit for purpose tools can be worse than not having them, in what they can damage, one can always borrow on pain of death re giving them back again. :-)

That blue will make a nice primer color under the gray paint
