This program was modified April 1, 2012, and now includes additional competencies to cover Power Equipment. Thus, the full trade name is now "Motorcycle and Power Equipment Technician." Technicians work on motorcycles and other vehicles such as motor scooters and all-terrain vehicles. They assemble, diagnose, maintain and repair engines, transmissions, drive systems, steering assemblies, braking systems, chassis and suspension, electrical systems, and fuel and exhaust systems. They may specialize in repairing, rebuilding, customizing or servicing these systems or assemblies. Motorcycle and Power Equipment Technicians work with hand, power, pneumatic and measuring tools, shop equipment, and diagnostic and testing tools. Reference materials, documentation and computers are also important tools in this trade.
A Motorcycle and Power Equipment Technician is designated as a Motorcycle Mechanic under the Interprovincial Standards Red Seal Program.
