A.M.I / Wyotech
Good to see Kurt Heinrich still teaching at Wyotech in Daytona. When I went there in 2004 it was known as A.M.I. It was a beat up old hotel that the owner had let fall into horrible disrepair. In that same year it was bought by Wyotech. With in a year the campus had moved into a new beautiful building. I went through the Harley program and learned alot from Kurt. The man knows his Harley's! He has a 69 900 stroker sportster that will eat any big twin!The funny thing was I was riding a Triumph and till this day I wrench on more Triumphs then Harleys.

ReplyDeleteThat building was already, ready to be torn down in 1988 !
Kurt, Gained à lot grey hair since 1988 !
Did Dave still worked there ?
I was there in 04-05. Great guy. Was also visiting him att Wayotec in 2000
ReplyDeleteI graduated the basic and Harley courses there in August 1984. Kurt was really, really good. I sent him whatever Harley Service Bulletins I got for several years after. He asked us when we graduated to send him any factory literature we could if we worked in a dealership.....so I did. Apparently the Motor Company had turned their back on AMI. I went to work for Zippers in 1990 and the game changed for me.
ReplyDeleteI knew him in 1989 when I went to AMI. We became best friends. Is there any way to contact him to say Hi?
ReplyDeleteI graduated in 09, Kurts engine class was my favorite. Very disappointed they've closed down. I didnt find a job in the field, until i had started another career and could afford the paycut. Would love to wrench on bike full time. Instead, i'll just continue working on my own stuff.
ReplyDeleteIs Kirk still teaching
DeleteKurt taught my fiance years ago. His name is Norman Goodwin. Is Kurt still teaching?
