Good luck with your search but my guess is you will have a hard time finding a good mechanic that is also willing to be a gopher.

 

[Ball Z Motorsports]

Yeah, I know what you are saying. But from past experience I cannot hire a mechanic to do strictly mechanic work from the get go. It would be different if we were hiring someone that will only do regular maintenance. Custom work cannot be learned in schools and takes a certain type of individual...if the person doesn't have the right mentality then they may not be able to learn to pay as much attention to detail as needed on our builds. The guy that changes oil and tires all day long at a Suzuki franchised shop cannot necessarily handle what we do.

A person can have years of experience schooling, good references and talk the talk. But when it comes to doing the work it is a different story.

So we choose to have an individual that is willing to prove themselves before having the job title as full time mechanic. Their is a lot of room for advancement and this will work out to be a long term career for the right individual.

Already had several interested just waiting on the right one to come along. In no hurry.

Will you move your shop to So. IL? LOL

yea no kidding.. my guys were $24 flat rate hour and complained if they had to walk across the shop...

An older or retired guy looking for stuff to do might work well...

I would love to do something like this,check out my work-www.myspace/busabuilders.com then go to my pics. I currently work part time with the bikes out of my own garage, but could change if moneys right. I'll send ya a PM tonite. I'm just around the corner in Chillicothe. 25+ plus years with bikes of all kinds including dirt & 3-4 wheelers. Also a regular at US36 Dragstrip I currently have my own construction company but getting older and working on bikes is more love than work

This is true. Maybe you'd be better off finding a guy that had a little mechanical ability to do all the gofer stuff and move him up a little at the time. Just my thoughts.
