Oh please work on my bike - 4 posts and an attitude to boot. How do you know Speedie doesn't own a bike shop???

Did you stop to think about that, how do you I don't???

Good luck with the job hunt, you've shown some initiative but check the attitude it won't help you any.

My advice to you mate is this......save the attitude.
The bike industry is notoriously hard to get in to at the best of times.
Front up IN PERSON to all of your local shops with a positive attitude and put your name in 'the frame'.

We get literally dozens of young guys fronting up for work etc, only some of them get spoken to at any length, and they're the ones with the right attitude.

Best of luck.

The first post was a bit of a jibe really, but your answer confirmed my suspicion.
Just remember that just about every motorcycle shop in the country has at least one member on here.

Guess there goes that chance for him ha

if you look at search4jobs.co.nz (i think its advertised there) red baron is advertising for an apprentice with 4 years secondary education/ mito course.

Off memory someone else on here was looking for something like this , cant remember who but if you read this give it a shot .
Edit: zeocen was the one .

Dude, you might be a fantastic mechanic, or you might be crap, I don't know. But I do know that if you think that attitude will get you anywhere, you are sadly mistaken.
Good luck with your job searching.

Good luck with getting into the bike industry
I remember the days when the apprentice,did all the shit jobs,clean up,sweep up,get smoko & the places I have worked at here was no way they would answer back as the would get tarred & feathered,or hung from a hoist for the day,or send them around town getting cans of compression,recirculating water,chequered paint etc
Ohh those where the days
Could you imagine getting away with all that in this PC bullshit age
