Did you know?
Not only do motorcycle mechanics specialize in repair and overhaul of engines, they work on ignition systems, transmissions, brakes, electrical systems, fuel injection systems, plugs, carburetors and other parts. While in some areas of the country, demand for small engine repair services slows in the colder months, where use is seasonal, the skills used in motorcycle repair careers can transfer to other occupations such as auto mechanic careers, refrigeration careers and others.
