The Level One Motorbike course is tailored for individuals venturing into the motorbike detailing industry, or seeking to refine their skills with a specific focus on motorcycles. Its objective is to familiarise candidates with the processes and maintenance of two-wheeled vehicles, encompassing both professional and business perspectives. From foundational vehicle cleaning techniques and vehicle setup on stands for safe working, fairing removal and bike-specific protocols to becoming adept with small dual-action machine polishers, participants gain comprehensive knowledge.
If participants are looking to work across all vehicle types, they have the flexibility to opt for either the motorbike-focused Level One Course on its own and complete another course in future, or our standard vehicle Level One course with the Level 1 + Motorbike option, which covers both mediums.
