Learn to ride and get licensed!

Welcome to Pacific Motorcycle Training, the top school to learn how to ride a motorcycle safely in the Sacramento area. During our classes, you will learn everything you need to know to ride and control your motorcycle safely. Whether you are interested in learning the basics of riding a motorcycle—and getting your license endorsement—or simply improving your motorcycle skills to be safer on the road, come with us and we will provide you with the best classes you can get in the Sacramento Area. We are part of the California Motorcyclist Safety Program and all of our instructors are certified to teach the Total Control riding courses.

Convenient on-line classroom

The classroom portion consists of a six-hour course called eRider that can be done at your convenience and in the comfort of your home. It is highly interactive, using video and other features to address risk management, riding strategy, roadway management, impairments, and special riding situations like carrying passengers and group riding. Participants complete all classroom activities (6 chapters) before their first in-person motorcycle riding session. The motorcycle riding portion of the course consists of 10 hours of in-person instruction on gas powered motorcycles. The 10-hours of riding instruction takes place over two days and builds fundamental street-riding skills and strategies.

The eRider is a great option for busy students who are successful at learning in an individualized, self-paced environment. Please check our eRider FAQs page for eRider system requirements.

We welcome all Sacramento residents as well as future riders from neighboring towns such as Woodland, Davis, Dixon, and Yuba. Come learn how to ride a motorcycle and have fun with us!

"Zack was a very understanding and caring instructor. Answered questions outside of the classes scope when brought up and taught that basic teachings weren't the be all end all. Amazing experience and teachings."

"The instructors Zac, Olivia and Mark were all amazing, very patient knowledgeable. I walked away with new knowledge and skills I was never aware of even after riding for years but self taught. So, if you think you know it all. It doesn't hurt to take the class if you haven't done so and just read thru the handbook. Even to refresh. A big thank you to the team."

"WOW!!!! What an amazing experience these guys know their stuff. Everyone has something to learn at pacific motorcycle! All levels will excel with these professionals. I took the level 2 course and I was baffled with how much good techniques I learned. Big thanks to the staff for making this a great experience. If you’re iffy on pulling the trigger……do it! It just might save your life."

"Instructors were fantastic, and you could really tell they put their heart into everything. The equipment they provided was also clean and the bikes on selection were a large variety allowing the rider to tailor what kind of bike they might want to ride when it’s all said and done. Highly recommended this spot!"
