    I am sorry you had to sell your Harley. But, taking care of your family is much more important. I would expect your income to level off as you gain more experience.

    Good luck Scoundrel, That sucks you had to sell the bike but now you have some extra money to work with. You did the right thing many a man would not have. Keep at at and things will hopefully start to work out for you. In this game only the strong and determined will survive.

    Scoundrel, keep your chin up, things will get better. Just keep an open mind and work hard. As someone stated earlier, don't break the contract you have, it would be very bad, for your credit and also your DAC. They make you sign these contracts, and no one reads them, if you leave, you will be on the hook for your school, transportation to orientation, hotel, any meals, etc. They will charge you 25% to 35% interest on this "loan" that you won't have any money to repay. I just had a good friend go through something very similar with another company... If he would have just listened... Good luck, I hope that selling the bike gives you alittle breathing room. As long as the morons in Washington don't screw up our economy anymore, then you should be okay, just give it alittle time. It takes a good 6 months just to get into the groove and learn how the company works and all that.

    I was sorry to part with my old shovelhead chopper. I re-built it many times over the years. But. It's just a bunch of metal. It doesn't love me back.

    I'm already planning my next home built bike for sometime next year to celebrate turning 50 years old. I think it'll be a panhead this time. Rigid frame, jocky shift, flat black paint with classic hot rod flames and lots of chrome.
