Question Anyone Work at a Dealer?

There is an opening for full time parts and was wondering on average what the starting pay rate would be. I have a full time job now just want a change and what better than working at a dealer we all love.

In most cases, it's not a good idea to mix work with pleasures.

I've worked at a dealer, and the only way I'll go back to one is working part time (like I've applied for in the other thread).

Why don't you inquire with the dealer and ask them what the job pays?

Worked at a dealer for the last several years. Quit this year because I wanted to ride more. Working in the dealership you will be working when all your friends are riding. Most of the dealers in the midwest and south are commission base for the parts department. DSMHAWG
