"I took the motorcycle training course in November and loved it. The teachers were knowledgeable, helpful and firm. I was extremely nervous before getting on the bike and they did an amazing job making sure I felt comfortable and secure from the beginning of the class until the end. I highly recommend this class and staff."

"Absolutely amazing experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I just completed the 2-day CMSP course (May 28-29) at the Marine Corps Reserve Center in San Bruno and I left with not only a passing grade but also a huge confidence boost. What made this course stand out: • The instructors are SO patient and genuinely care about each student's progress. They take the time to explain every drill — Box, Cone Weave, Quick Stop, Swerve — and break down the techniques in a way that's easy to understand..."

"Very great place to get your license as a beginner if you don't want to take the dmv test! Instructors Wyatt and Isaac were amazing! Picked up new skills even though I already knew how to ride. 10/10"
- Mohamed Khan, October 2025
"Really detailed explanations, very clear and wants everyone to pass, as long as you come in with an open mind anyone should be able to pass. nice safe place for any concerns, and exploration for riding bikes, recommend. all resources were provided to be able to participate in class and pass. Instructors are awesome"
- Marquez Nicolas, July 2023
"What an excellent class. I was expecting when j showed up that many people were going to have a lot of experience on a motorcycle already. Turns out, most of them never been on a motorized bike, we all passed, a couple folks needed some extra time to learn things and that’s what happen. 100% recommend this beginner course for anyone!"
