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 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."

"I had a great experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training. The online course was fun and easy to follow while also being very informative. It changed my opinion on a few items. The in-person training was so much fun - even though it rained a bit 😃. The instructors were friendly and knowledgeable and the course was set up well. I plan to take the intermediate and advanced classes next."

"When I heard that these guys were opening a Sacramento location, I got three friends signed up who've been gearing up to take a training course on the east side. I wasn't surprised that they enjoyed their experience as much as I did. I would recommend Pacific Motorcycle Training to anyone looking to learn from scratch or just to keep your skills fresh. Very professional, knowledgeable and they keep it fun!"

"I was nervous to start the course but I'm really glad I did, trainers were knowledgeable and understanding. After completing the course, I learned everything I needed to know and gain so much confidence on riding. No complaints and would definitely look into the intermediate lesson next👍"

"Incredible experience taking the beginner motorcycle training class! Kudos to our instructors Wyatt and Isaac, they’re a huge part of contributing to my cohort’s success. I went from zero motorcycle riding experience to having a basic understanding to operate one and continue practicing riding once I get my M1 endorsement. I’m excited that not only it was a fun weekend learning a new skill, I also get to use this as my waiver for the DMV skills test and I just need to worry about the written test for my M1 endorsement..."
