Well fuck. Idk. Are there a lot of Harley owners around you?

Are you sure you want to be tied to 1 brand?

Yeah lol..theres a more then a few.. and yes harley davidson is my favorite brand , later on i can learn other brands..just looking for an overall opinion of the trade
 
It seems that there are fewer motorcycles on the road these days and most that I see are being ridden by people with gray hair. It doesn't seem like young people are into riding motorcycles. I don't know how much demand there will be for motorcycle mechanics in the future. You will probably need to work on more than Harley's to survive. The motorcycle dealers in my area sell more atvs than motorcycles.
 
Motorcycles are incredibly simple machines.

Also LMAO at wanting to be a Harley Mechanic.

Cool, if bikes are your passion then you’ll probably love it.
I know a guy in Newmarket area who opened a side business fixing bikes, he has a full time career but just loves working on bikes on the side
Where in Ontario are you?

Just get ready to be bottom bitch at whatever dealership you end up working for. Oil changes and gay chrome eagle/freedom bullshit bolt-ons will most likely be your first year or two.

Oh true im in the brampton area.. not too far from Newmarket. I really enjoy working with my hands and currently own a renovation company but things arent always stable in that business so that drove me to consider a change.. id say my four passions in life outside of my family are

Martial arts - been training in Japanese Jiujitsu since i was in my late teens, would compete in MMA but i have to small daughters and the instabilty of a fight career would be to much right now..may transition into coaching after i get my black belt though.

Custom motorcycles & cars ( harleys,choppers, muscle cars, performance cars)

Renovations & construction ( especially the before and after, knowing i was responsible for the change is an awesome feeling)

Outdoors ( watching nature, going fishing , and would like to try hunting sometime soon too)

So out of all of my passions , a few only provide me an actually good income at the moment lol and im not one for working somewhere i hate ...i need to love what i do or im not a fun person to be around lol
