The objective of UTI’s Harley-Davidson & HonTech Training program is to prepare students for entry‑level technician positions with the knowledge and skills required to perform maintenance and routine service, diagnose mechanical and electrical systems, and make necessary repairs and replacements. To reinforce students’ preparation for future career success, there also is an emphasis on developing their professionalism skills.
Harley‑Davidson Late Model allows students to further develop their core H‑D technical skills that become the foundation they will build upon throughout their careers as technicians. Students are introduced to the systems and procedures necessary to service late model Harley‑Davidson® motorcycles, progressively working through the routine (Vehicle Maintenance), intermediate (Chassis Service) and complex (Powertrain Service). In addition to servicing and repairing motorcycles, students rotate into support roles such as service writer and service consultant. Work is performed with Harley‑Davidson’s proprietary web access (h‑dnet.com®) and Harley‑Davidson.com to support technicians (students) in their service tasks.
Harley‑Davidson Early Model is designed to provide students with knowledge and experience on the design, repair, and maintenance of Harley‑Davidson® vehicles dating back to 1936. Engineering, technical and service data comes directly from Harley‑Davidson® materials. The focus is hands-on experience as students learn to disassemble, repair, and maintain early model Harley‑Davidson® vehicles. Early model motorcycles along with a large variety of component assemblies provide ample exposure to many varieties of early model H-D® products. Students study vintage service bulletins as well as special information packets on topics such as model changes, component design changes, adaptability of late model parts and locating suppliers of obsolete components.
Harley‑Davidson® Screamin’ Eagle® allows students to learn about the Screamin’ Eagle line of performance options. They learn about the performance applications of components such as cylinder heads, camshafts, ignition systems, and intake and exhaust systems. The emphasis is on learning the correct application and combination of these performance components. Students learn how to identify all the variables in a Harley‑Davidson® motor that can increase combustion efficiency and drivability performance.
HonTech is where students will receive training that has been endorsed by American Honda endorsed. HonTech is designed to provide the knowledge and hands‑on experience required to become an entry‑level Honda technician. Much of the information presented in the elective comes directly from American Honda training centers. The emphasis of HonTech is on developing entry‑level technicians for Honda motorcycle dealerships.
