Senior Exit Paper-Motorcycle Repair Technician

            Senior Exit Paper-Motorcycle Repair Technician.
             When you haer the word mechanic what do you think of? Most people think about a man in overalls covered in dirt and grease. That idea might have been true 10 years ago, but today most mechanics are clean cut and work in a shop that is often cleaner than most peoples house. Ever since I was young, I have loved riding motorcycles and working on them when they break down. The career that lets me continue this love of motorcycles is being a repair technician, which is working on and riding motorcycles for a living "Someone once said that working at what you love is like being on vacation all the time."(Dan). In this paper I will discuss what it takes to be a motorcycle repair technician and what being a motorcycle repair technician entails. The motorcycle repair field is stable yet interesting. .
             A motorcycle repair technician has many responsibilities. A motorcycle mechanic's responsibilities include diagnosing, repairing, and rebuilding all different types of motorcycles. Today most motorcycles use computers, so a mechanic has to have some technologic education. According to the Occupational Outlook Handbook 2002-03 to be a good mechanic besides being good with tools you also have to know how to do math, be a good accountant, act as a secretary and have customer service skills. When someone brings a broken motorcycle in, they want to know exactly what's wrong, and what they"re paying for. That's why a mechanic must keep good records and know how to talk to a customer. Motorcycle mechanics also have to be clean and keep the shop clean.
             Motorcycle mechanics have to have several key skills to be good at what they do. They also have to have the right attitude. A mechanic has to take interest and pride in his work or they won't do as good a job. Motorcycle mechanics have to have about the same skills as an automotive mechanic. Mechanics have to be able to troubleshot and use symptoms to figure out why a motorcycle isn't starting or not going into gear.
