Motorcycle mechanics normally work in specialist garages or shops where motorcycles or motor scooters are sold and repaired. They carry out the maintenance and repair work. As new motorcycles are usually delivered in parts, they also carry out the assembly work necessary before sale. In smaller shops or garages, they may also be involved in sales and customer relations.
The work is very similar to that of an auto mechanic, but perhaps not so arduous as the cycle to be worked upon can be mounted in a convenient position for the work to be carried out.
