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.

"Both instructors, Christine and Earl, were great. They were in sync throughout the day. They were very knowledgeable and knew how to effectively deliver constructive feedback."

"The instructors were friendly and very knowledgeable. They were patient and gave me a lot of helpful tips when I was having trouble with the controls and following some of their instructions. Evie ran to help me when I fell over (thank God I wasn't going fast). I would have liked to spend more time getting used to the bike before starting maneuvers. It was my first time on a motorcycle and I never learned how to drive a car with a manual transmission so it took me a while to learn how to coordinate the clutch/switching gears with the acceleration..."

"The Instructors Are Really Nice & Cool With Everybody In The Class . They Demonstrate & Read Instructions Each Skill Very Clearly.. I’ve Enjoyed My Time Taking The MSF Class Even Though It Was My First Time On A Motorcycle.. If Anyone Would Like To Learn The Basics Please Take This Class I Highly Recommend !"

"I took the beginner MSF course with Stephen and he was a fantastic instructor. He was very informative, personable, and thorough! His demonstrations were concise and he really took the time to break things down in a very digestible way. I really can't believe that in two and a half days how much more confident I feel at the thought of getting on a bike, compared to before. The RRMT crew really care about the safety of riders & making sure everyone knows proper and safe technique..."
