Can anybody help with motorcycle maintenance work experience for Louis, a 23 year old who has just completed 2 years study at Coventry University.
CV:-
Thermodynamics – fluids in pipes, gas power cycles and turbo-charging.
Solid mechanics – stress analysis.
Advanced vehicle systems – ignition systems, oscilloscopes and strain gauges.
Motorsport development – data acquisition research
Design, materials and manufacture – redesigned data acquisition system on Formula Student car.
Electronics
Marshalling and scrutineering – Experience
Interests – Motorcycling (no surprises there then!)
Education/qualifications – Millions of A levels, too numerous for me to mention here.
Work experience – He’s held down various jobs between study.

I have a CV available if anybody would like to have a look.

Louis is looking for hands on experience and can travel by motorbike (wonders never cease) to any location. Presently located at either Coventry or Bromley in Kent.

I’ll pass on any ideas. But initially my thoughts are whether any of our motorcycle mechanics need an extra pair of hands in the workshop. Or whether Louis can help one to one or generally in the Desmo Due paddock.

U2U me details if you are interested and I’ll put the two of you together.

Ta.

I would speak to John at JHP (Ducati coventry) by the look of your discription and the level he is already qualified, Jon may be interested!
worth a try

Thank you 'madmav'. I'll fire an Email to JHP now.
The poor lad started uni; smashed himself to bits in a bike accident and then had to start all over again, so he's a bit late getting off the starting block.
Any other ideas greatly appreciated.
