As a 20+ year Technician. Learn how things works and like many have said take it apart and carefully put it back. Listen to advice from experienced people and enjoy yourself.

All of the above suggestions are excellent.
Please try not to laugh and I know it's a motorcycle book but...
...The best book I ever read for repairing anything was a book by Dave Richardson, called Guzziology (I used to own a Guzzi/RIP). It is a great primer on all things internal combustion, geared, etc., etc. He has a very unique perspective and philosophy on fixing motor driven vehicles and it is a great read (Haynes might be a bit much on a vacation).
