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.

"Great experience overall. The instructor Wyatt deserves a raise! His passion for riding & teaching isn't too common, and to have his guidance and expertise made me feel much more confident. Hats off the Wyatt & the team."

"Incredible experience taking the beginner motorcycle training class! Kudos to our instructors Wyatt and Isaac, they’re a huge part of contributing to my cohort’s success. I went from zero motorcycle riding experience to having a basic understanding to operate one and continue practicing riding once I get my M1 endorsement. I’m excited that not only it was a fun weekend learning a new skill, I also get to use this as my waiver for the DMV skills test and I just need to worry about the written test for my M1 endorsement..."

"Our two days of training with our instructor Q was great. The helmet that they loaned me for me alright and was in great condition. The motorcycles area smaller and off brand for the most part. Some throttles and clutches were really old to the point where some of us had to kick the shifter so much it just broke off. Overall the sign up process was also straightforward. I called in to make sure i got everything right, they called me back and patiently explained everything..."

"The class was very well organized. All three instructors I had were kind, encouraging, and fun. They were very clear in communicating instructions and feedback. The class covered basic skills with a good amount of practice time. I had a great time and learned a lot. I’m excited to ride, and come back to take the next class."

"I rode a motorcycle a long time ago. I stopped riding in 1992 and about 7 years ago I let my license go . I found it to be very informative. The instructor was wonderful. I'm going to take their advanced class."
