Default MMI Questions.

I posted this similar post under the General Harley Chat forum but I didn't get any response so I'll post it here too. I'm just wondering if anyone is an MMI graduate or if they just work at a Harley dealership or repair shop. I'm going back and forth on whether I'm leaving the Air Force or not. I would love to work on bikes for a living but here's the trouble, I looked at payscale.com and it shows a Harley tech/mechanic getting paid only around 22-24k a year, even though the MMI website says that a "top mechanic" can make up to 100k a year. If it really is only 22k a year then I would take a 12k dollar a year pay cut. And I'm only an E-4! Just wondering what the field is like.

Thanks in advance.

I don't work in the field. Network support is what I do. I would say it depends on the area for the tech. Some areas would pay alot and other not. Just like any other job really.
