Motorcycle Riding Courses for Experienced Riders

Pacific Motorcycle Training

We offer three different options for riders who want to become better and safer on the road.

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!


"Had a great experience. Came in not knowing anything about riding a motorcycle and learned a lot. The instructors were great."
- J Hernandez, July 2024
"Q and Crusoe are amazing instructors. Honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Both of them teach in an easy to learn way as well."

"I had a great time taking this course! The instructors Craig and Issac, were patient with me and answered all of my questions. (I hope I didn't ask too many!) They were very informative and made me feel confident, and now I can be a better rider and also a better driver too! I would recommend this course to anyone in the Bay area no matter what level of rider you are."

"Absolutely amazing experience as someone who has never been on a bike before! Q was our main instructor for both days. He was so thorough at explaining everything and never hesitated at answering questions. Patrick was there our first day as the second instructor. His calm presence really helps a newbie feel comfortable. Dylan was there on the second day and so full of energy! All the instructors gave great advice and really made you feel confident in your abilities..."

"This is the place where you want to do your training. The instructor Steven was excellent, the bikes were in good shape and easy to ride, Jennifer in the office went above and beyond to get me my certificate quickly so that I could start the process at the DMV in time for my trip abroad. Highly recommended."

"Helpful staff. Knowledgeable instructors. You will definitely come out more confident in riding a motorcycle if you are a newbie. A con though: You better pass the written test the first time, or else they will charge you $75 to re-take it. I personally did not see the reason why. I mean, I took it during their business hour."
- Johnny Gonzalez, June 2020
"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."
