It does get easier. When I got my bike, I talked to a guy who volunteered at my police department. He owned a custom bike shop. He let me bring my bike and "help" him work on it. Although I was not much help. Before too long, I was able to actually do the work myself. I ended up learning fork seals, chain and sprocket replacement, oil change, clutch replacement, and various cosmetic procedures.
