Anybody work for a dealer in the AZ area? I found this on cycletrader and considered applying. I am actually an auto tech but want to get into motorcycles.

This much I can tell you--the motorcycle business will never provide the income in comparable positions to the car business. The bike biz is not high-paying, generally. People are usually in it because they love motorcycles more than money.

I work on both and must say thet the motorcycles are a bit more fun to work with. this may be because i have worked on cars for the last 16 years and i am burnt.. i submited my resume and got a call from another dealer within the hour so i will see what they have to offer in the morning.

Congrats on the Job! Even if it doesn't pay as well as the car business perhaps it'll switch things up for you a little and add a little more excitement to your life.

Life can get routine and mundane, its good to switch it up once and a while.

We're glad you're here, we can never have too many people that know what they are talking about.

Maybe a loss in pay will be compensated by the discount you get from working at a dealer? It seems people spend more than they ever thought they would on bikes.
