Motorcycle Mechanic
Automotive · Moorooka, Brisbane QLD (Remote), Australia · Full-Time · $80,000/yr
Your week moves between the service bay and the diagnostic bench: finding faults, stripping and rebuilding engines, sorting brakes and suspension, then test-riding to check the fix holds. A well-established Queensland motorcycle dealership wants a Motorcycle Mechanic who can do all of this to a steady standard.
What counts most is proof. You should be able to show your trade background and real motorcycle repair skills, and you must work by technical procedures while keeping the workshop safe and professional.
If you trained in South Africa, keep a certified copy of your trade certificate ready; trades are usually assessed again in Australia.

- Track down mechanical and electrical faults with the right testing and diagnostic gear
- Check over each motorcycle for faults, wear and the maintenance it needs
- Service bikes and do preventative maintenance to manufacturer requirements, including engine services, oil changes, lubrication and tune-ups
- Strip, check and rebuild engines and mechanical assemblies, replacing faulty or worn parts
- Work on brakes, suspension, steering and transmission systems
- Follow technical manuals and manufacturer procedures on every repair, then test and adjust the bike afterwards to confirm it performs
- Explain what repairs are needed and pass on technical details clearly
- Keep accurate records of repairs, services and parts, and run an organised workshop that meets safety rules
- Help out with urgent repairs and breakdown jobs when needed
