About Us

Pacific Motorcycle Training

Pacific Motorcycle Training is a motorcycle riding school where students learn the basics and gain confidence to operate a motorcycle safely. We offer motorcycle and scooter training classes at 7 great locations: South San Francisco, San Bruno, Livermore at Las Positas College campus, Woodland, Salinas, Cloverdale and Eureka. These locations are easy to find and parking is always hassle-free.

Our basic course is CMSP-approved. This means students who take and pass our course receive a DL389 certificate required to waive the DMV riding skill test. We teach the very latest techniques in safety, accident prevention, cornering, and how to use a clutch as well as proficient braking.

For New Riders

Learn the basics of riding safely in a controlled environment and receive the certificate that may waive the DMV riding skill test. Our friendly basic riding course was designed for people with zero experience on a motorcycle. We provide motorcycles and helmets for you to learn with.

"Absolutely amazing experience as someone who has never been on a bike before! Q was our main instructor for both days. He was so thorough at explaining everything and never hesitated at answering questions. Patrick was there our first day as the second instructor. His calm presence really helps a newbie feel comfortable. Dylan was there on the second day and so full of energy! All the instructors gave great advice and really made you feel confident in your abilities..."

"The instructors, Q, Steve, and Evie were very knowledgeable. They explained things well and kept everything on time. They were able to identify when I needed special instructions and pulled me out to coach me on proper techniques and gave me specific information that helped me improve."

"Wonderful motorcycle school! My English is not very strong, so I used an interpreter during the lessons. The team of professionals always made sure the interpreter had time to explain everything to me, so I could fully understand and learn. Thanks to them, I became a confident motorcycle rider. Before this, I had no riding experience, but in just two days they taught me step by step. Huge thanks to the school and the amazing team — I highly, highly, highly recommend them!"

"The training was very useful, efficient and fun. I took the class in Livermore and the facilities are great and I didn’t feel rushed. A call out to our wonderful instructors - Dave, Erin and Anthony. It was nearly a 100F both days and they did a great job despite the heat. I would highly recommend this class."

"Definitely would recommend this to anyone beginners! I'm genuinely surprised on how much I was able to learn in the two days I attended the training! Dylan and Chris I believe was his name were really patient with me and wouldn't ever show signs of frustration or stress when I would make mistakes. Definitely will consider their intermediate course."
