Students will receive an applied general education in physical sciences and mathematics. Students will learn how mathematics applies to measuring engine components to determine clearances, calculate compressions ratios, engine displacement, and transmissions gear ratios and related applications in motorcycle technology.

Students will learn the theory and operating principles of four-stroke engines. They will learn about design and function of various engine and transmission configurations, clutches and primary drive systems. These lessons are taught through a series of hands-on lab demonstrations that will give students an opportunity to disassemble the system and practice their measuring skills.

Students are introduced to professional work standards, shop safety rules, proper use of common hand tools and manufacturer’s service manuals, with special focus on the use of precision measuring tools.
