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!

"Great way to learn how to ride. The course left me with much more confidence being on a bike then coming in. Learned about how to ride and the risk that come with it. Would gladly come again to take the more advanced classes."

"Zac & Isaac took the time to explain not just how to ride, but why each technique matters—from proper clutch control and braking to situational awareness on the road. They created a comfortable learning environment where I felt supported, never rushed, and always safe."

"Great experience. Instructors were very patient, thorough, and professional. Would highly recommend for anyone who’s never taken a class whether they are a complete novice or an experienced rider they can benefit from a formal overview of the fundamentals of riding."

"What an amazing experience these highly skilled instructors provide. Instructors take turns leading classroom learning sessions, providing feedback after students perform exercises on the motor cycles and they each perform (ride) demonstrations of the various exercises themselves, showing us how to and not to execute the. This is a top notch organization!!!"

"It was fantastic, I had alot of fun. You can never have enough motorcycle training. I've already seen a difference when I go out riding. I use the new skills that I've learned and practice them everytime I ride. I already went to dmv and got my motorcycle endorsement. Now i can legally ride on the freeways.Great instructors. I will recommend this training course 👌 💪"
