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.

"I took the beginner MSF course with Stephen and he was a fantastic instructor. He was very informative, personable, and thorough! His demonstrations were concise and he really took the time to break things down in a very digestible way. I really can't believe that in two and a half days how much more confident I feel at the thought of getting on a bike, compared to before. The RRMT crew really care about the safety of riders & making sure everyone knows proper and safe technique..."

"The location was fenced in and well protected from any outside traffic concerns. The motorcycle provided was well suited for my size and ran well. The course was both challenging and educational at the same time and the instructors - Cursoe, Dillon and Q were very helpful with clear instruction, firm safety practices, supportive feedback, fun and alot of patience. Great job by all! Even with a little rain it was a great experience."

"Absolutely amazing experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training! I am so glad this company is offering classes in San Jose. I have taken classes with mutiple training schools and PMT is the best, by far. Their dedication to making riders better is apparent and the staff is amazing. I believe continuing to take motorcycle classes makes riders the most skilled and safest we can be. Highly recommend!"

"Such a great experience. Wyatt is a great instructor and totally demystified the basics of riding a motorcycle. Great beginner bikes to learn on and the space is just what you need to start/build a little confidence. Will definitely recommend to anyone wanting to learn how to ride. The course gave me that itch to want to keep evolving my skills."

"I struggled a lot with the weight of the bike and fell a couple times. Q gave me helpful tips on balancing the bike and offered a lighter bike. All the teachers were very helpful, knowledgable and patient. The first day was hard learning the basics but by the end I learned how to ride the motorcycle and was able to pass the class."
