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.

The skills learned in the class reinforced the importance of safety and smooth and proper handling of the bike. I would recommend this class to anyone interested in learning how to ride.

"Hey hey! The training was AMAZING! I really liked how the guys teach, how they explain everything in detail, and create a friendly atmosphere! They genuinely do everything to help the student develop skills at the level of muscle memory. I never thought it was possible to gain such a wealth of knowledge and experience in just two days. It was amazing! Even though my English isn’t perfect and I don’t understand everything yet, you can easily ask again, and they will explain everything you need..."
