IF IT WERE ME I'D START WITH A SPORTY ENGINE , PARTS ARE USALLY CHEAPER YOU CAN BUILD A LIGHTER BIKE AND WITH THE HARLEY MOTOR YOUR NOT DUMPING A BUNCH OF CASH INTO A BIKE THAT MAYBE HARD TO SELL DOWN THE LINE , AND AT 18 YOU PROBABLY WIEGH WHAT 125LBS THAT ENGINE/BIKE   WILL BE WAY FAST WITH YOU ON IT
