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 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.

For Experienced Riders

Become a better—and safer—rider using your own motorcycle with our Intermediate Riding Clinic. Or take your cornering and crash-avoidance skills to the highest level with our Advanced Riding Clinics, taught only by the best certified instructors in the Bay Area!

"The guys running the course were great! Knowledgeable, relaxed and supportive. Unfortunately there was someone there, the first day, to do some surveying of the company or something. He on the other hand was a complete asshat who did nothing but confuse the students and shout random stuff angrily. I’ve put 5 stars despite that guy. I assume he’s not there often so I would still 100% recommend the company."

"I took the class with my son, and we both liked it! Evie, Erin and Brian are fantastic, patient instructors, who made the class fun and motivating. What I liked a lot is that the course isn’t just about learning to ride, but emphasizes safety which is especially important for younger people, like my 17year old son, whose frontal lobe hasn’t fully matured yet. :) Thank you for such a great experience!"

"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."

"I highly recommend this class to any and all riders! I'm a repeat customer (ARC Lvl. 1 & 2) and I am blown away by the curriculum, and even more importantly, the instructors. Ofir and Collen are both amazing! I have ridden motorcycles for over 11 years and have a ton of miles my belt. Even so, I have learned so much from each and every class. I plan to keep practicing and will be back soon!"

"I rode a motorcycle a long time ago. I stopped riding in 1992 and about 7 years ago I let my license go . I found it to be very informative. The instructor was wonderful. I'm going to take their advanced class."

"Instructors: Isaac and Christorpher were incrediblely attentive to detail and immediately gave advices to proper riding. Their expertise is absolutely phenomenal. I would highly recommend anyone who is interested to immediately sign up for the course. The lecture and riding lessons gave me the opportunity to understand my weaknesses and how to fix it. Shout-out to the instructors! You guys rock!!!"
