    Hi all.

    find myself out of work at the minute,.
    trying to find a job I'd enjoy so I was wondering. What kind of jobs can you get, if any, within the motorcycle industry in Ireland.

    I'd say mechanics would have a tough time trying to get an apprenticeship in this current economic climate. believe me I know, I've been trying to finish my Electrical apprenticeship for the last 2 and a half years.

    General salesmen in accessories or Bikes I'm guessing are in short demand and there's not that many Bike shops around anyway.

    I'm racking my brain trying to think of any jobs to do with motorcycles that isnt a courier.

    any help/ideas would be appreciated.

    There's no money in couriering any more.

    Only way is to call into your local shops and ask if they've any work.

    Or as a riding instructor. Takes a bit off time, training and money from what I know of it. These people may be able to tell you more - http://www.msa-ireland.com/
