This class will teach theory and function of motorcycle engines. Upon completion of the class, students will have the basic understanding of the proper method to disassemble and and assemble an engine. They will also learn measuring and matching of individual components. There are no specific admissions requirements, just the desire to learn.

All tools for this class will be provided by our instructors. This is a smaller course that really breaks down the engine building process. This advanced course was formed to meet the demand of many of our past students at their request.

The class will be approx 20 clock hours. Each topic will be given enough time for complete comprehension as necessary. Students will be reviewed on each phase in addition to question and answer after each session to insure complete understanding.
