Motorcycles might be small but are very complex machines and require frequent maintenance which is why motorcycle mechanics are so important. Most mechanics are also cyclists and are passionate about the sport themselves. With so many parts and long hours being a motorcycle mechanic can be physically demanding. They are prone to many different physical injuries incurred by lifting heavy objects, squatting all day, using repetitive motions, and being exposed to harsh chemicals, exhaust fumes, loud noises, and toxic dust. The demand for motorcycle mechanics is expected to remain high for the foreseeable future. In fact, employment of motorcycle mechanics is projected to increase by 24 percent between 2010 and 2020, which is faster than the average for all occupations.
