Motorcycle Safety School at Lehman College

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of taking the MSS course here at the parking lot of Lehman College. My couches were Mr. Ed Mcgarry and Ali Asoubar. They were both very professional and really motivating in helping me learn the rules and technicalities of riding a motorcycle. If you have never ridden a motorcycle before, try to get a private lesson from either of the instructor to keep the nerve to a minimum during the practical demonstration part of the two day Basic Rider Course. This is the testing phase of the course and while it is easy to pass, I was still a little nervous going in. I am happy to report, with the couches' help, I passed without any problems. If you are thinking about getting your motorcycle license, I would highly recommend this location. Also, Mr. Ali has a cool motorcycle.

Positive experience: Buenas tardes quisiera saber a qué oficina me tengo que dirigir para hacer la clase para Motocicleta y cuál sería el precio si alguien me podría ayudar por favor con la dirección se lo estaría agradeciendo.. ya yo tengo el permiso de motocicleta pero ha hora quiero obtener la licencia M

Fantastic experience: In a very short period of time I went from never having touched/knowing nothing about motorcycles to passing my BRC course, all thanks to the great instructors I had along the way in my 101 and 1-on-1 sessions. They all really nail that delicate area between pushing you out of your comfort zone while still prioritizing safety and critical knowledge. The 1-on-1’s are worth their weight in gold.

Fantastic experience: I was in the class with Valentin Burlacu, Paul Venn they are very professional, patient and explain everything very well I really recommend. thank you very much for all your help

Fantastic experience: I took the 2-day MSF course and by the end of day 2, riding a motorcycle felt second nature! Clutch control is really drilled into you lol Valentine is the greatest instructor I've had. He is able to teach in-between the intensity of a drill Sargent and a caring father. He's also so great with questions and even gave us advice for the real world of motorcycle riding.

Fantastic experience: MSF is awesome, Ali is great instructor! The course was very informative & he gave great motorcycle tips for riders… I highly recommend it

Fantastic experience: The entire team Valentino, Joe and Jose were incredible and patient. Their directions and words of encouragement really helped get me through the class.

Fantastic experience: newbie rider here .had a wonderfull time . ALI and VAL are so strict but i know because its a jungle out there. my advice to all new riders take this course it will really help you a lot and boost your driving skills.

Fantastic experience: The best motorcycle school to learn ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: Had an amazing time there learning how to ride. Randomly had the urge to ride and booked the earliest intro and 2 day course. I learned so much in the 3 days of class. Thank you Joel, Paul, Larry, Mark and finally Gary. Recommend to anyone new or old who needs to get the M on their license.

Fantastic experience: Excellent ALL around Great staff....Easy learning

Negative experience: Hello, I have a 5-hour video viewing certificate with my motorcycle license. How can I contact you to take motorcycle driving lessons? I don't speak English. I am writing to you by translating from Google.

Positive experience: Pretty good experience overall. I was expecting 12 hours (6hr per day) of riding, but a large portion of the day is spent waiting for your turn to practice. So not 12 hours of actual practice. The fundamentals of motorcycling is drilled into you pretty well. The difficulty of the course depends on the motorcycle you pick. A small Honda Grom is much more maneuverable than the larger Honda Rebel 300 they have. Instructors are happy to advise you on riding techniques and what motorcycles to buy. Someone might've semi-seriously told me to "buy the most cc's your dollar can get" so here I am with a 1900cc Stratoliner as my first bike LOL.

Fantastic experience: Start s at 13.30 great instructors ever congratulations Paul and Jack for being so kind and professional with the students

Fantastic experience: Yesterday (07/31/2023) I took the MSF Basic RiderCourse 2-License Waiver course at Lehman College, Bronx.Thank you for providing excellent service with the expertise of driving techniques. I appreciate instructor Ali. Thank you so much for your help(Ali is the best ones again thank you so much)

Fantastic experience: The course was very thorough, the instructors are very stern but it’s not personal, they need to make sure that you understand the seriousness safety and proper execution of operating maneuvering your motorcycle plays. They are very caring and understanding but for your safety they will not be flexible with the rules so if you’re going in there with an entitled attitude, or your feelings can be hurt with a feather, I strongly recommend you swallow your pride because this is a military style motorcycle training course. Humble yourself down and sign up willing to learn and knowing you might get yelled at when they have to repeat the same thing to you more than twice, and I guarantee you will learn proper safe riding techniques, you’ll pass the road test and get your road test waiver to take to the DMV. During breaks and after course hours, the instructors go back to being the truly cool and fun people they really are and they can’t wait to see you on your bike and going on rides with them. They’ll even invite you back to become an instructor once you perfect your riding skills. I signed up to the ultimate package, I completed the first 2 and got my road test voucher. I can’t wait to go for basic rider course 2 to sharpen my skills. This school was recommended to me by a friend who is an old time biker and I can see why, I’m super happy that I finally got around to it and can’t wait to get my bike and ride with the instructors. FYI: if like me, you have no rider experience, I recommend you do what I did, buy the ultimate package and leave some space between the date you take Motorcycle 101 and your basic rider course. The reason for this is, just in case you don’t feel confident after motorcycle 101, so you can schedule some private lessons and be prepared for the basic rider course, that way you lessen the odds of being counseled out and losing your money.

Fantastic experience: Today (07/10/2023) I took the MSF Basic RiderCourse 2-License Waiver course that started at 7am. Thank you for providing excellent service with the expertise of driving techniques. I appreciate the instructor that help me. Thank you for helping me get the skills to pass my road test!

Fantastic experience: This 4th of July weekend 2023 myself and my cousin decided to take the 101 Motorcycle Class at Lehman College. When we arrived we was greeted by Hardy. Not only was he very informative he was very patient with everyone. Such a great teacher. Made everyone feel as if he was more of a friend teaching us to be safe than someone who was only there for a paycheck. From start to finish he made sure we understood everything. Not only did we all leave with confidence but with a long lasting impression. If you get Hardy you are in great hands.

Fantastic experience: Did a 1:1 class with Hardy today and genuinely loved the focus on safety, and had so much fun! I really didn’t think I’d go from no experience to (SLOWLY) building up to riding the bike, but I’m finally living a dream I’ve had for ages. Got the recommendation to keep doing 1:1s a few more time and appreciate the guidance to pace at my own pace. Thank you so much! Can’t wait for the next lesson.

Fantastic experience: The session was awesome! Hardy was so informative and fun, I truly had a great time. He’s a great teacher, I highly recommend the course.

Fantastic experience: Took the coarse in the end of may with 0 experience, had Ali one day, Andrew one day, and Calvin both days who was the man, gave me some good advice on first bike, track days etc. fast forward to today two weeks later I have 300 miles on my new ninja 650 and am feeling really good and confident. I’m just mad i didn’t bundle up with the advanced package class when I signed up. Will take the L and pay the extra.

Fantastic experience: Just finished and passed the course this morning (May 2023). Fantastic course made even better by the instructors. Ali and Paul were incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and instructive and I passed this course only because of what they taught me over the two days. Highly recommend taking any courses with Ali and Paul, they’re the best!

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience highly recommend taking classes, even if u ride,101 or in groups..the instructors make you feel very comfortable..I had the pleasure to get taught by the amazing valentine, frank and Andrew. Thanks guys god speed!

Fantastic experience: Great experience Highly reccomend going to This school if you want your motorcycle license First I took a private lesson with Joel in preparation for the Basic riders course. He was extremely helpful during the lesson and giving me a strong foundation on how to ride a bike with all the controls proper placement of your hands, feet, and the controls of the bike and how to use them correctly. When I took the basic riders course to get my license all the Val, Andrew, and all the instructors were awesome, they were very thorough when explaining each section and giving a demo as well and if you did something wrong or confused about something they would pull you over and tell you what went wrong and how to correct yourself for the nextime you did that exercise , they did whatever it took to help you succeed in the course.

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking into a solid MSF course because you’re just getting into motorcycles or want to get your license, I highly recommend taking it here at Lehman. I had Valentine, Andrew, Frank, and Julio as instructors and they were all amazing. Although the course is only 2 days long, the experience of knowing absolutely nothing and stalling the bikes to learning how to ride them smoothly was really satisfying. Everyone there including the other students were an absolute pleasure to learn alongside of. I highly recommend you ask for Valentine, great instructor. He will teach you everything you need to know and even hook you up with motorcycle communities you can join to get yourself acquainted with the world of riding motorcycles. 10/10.

Fantastic experience: Valentin, Andrew , Julio and the other instructors were amazing. They make you feel so comfortable . Very good instructors.. I was sad to leave they are wonderful.. Thank you guys♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Fantastic experience: Incredibly attentive instructor with a very strong course for intro to Motorcycling

Fantastic experience: Totally totally worth it amazing experience and cool staff Roberto and valentine are the best instructors even tho I had prior experience I learned A lot Would definitely take it again

Positive experience: LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP: The instructors (Paul et al) at this course are good; complete with decades of riding experience. I see all the reviews where people said they had zero knowledge and was able to pass. Well I’m on the other side of the spectrum. I have zero knowledge / experience and failed - literally every obstacle, and it wasn’t even close. This is no inditement on the instructors. Without a doubt the problem was me. My bottomline take away was that despite a strong desire to ride a motorcycle, I don’t have what it takes to do it. Being in New York I really should emphasize that this in no way means that I was (am) weak or slow. Instead, my conclusion is based on direct experience, and associated interpretations. So while I hear people saying “zero knowledge of motorcycles required”, I’d like to put an asterisk by that. Confidence is a funny thing. More often than not, it requires confirmation and momentum. For some, the absence of confirmation and momentum hits differently. Two hours into the course, it sincerely felt like I didn’t have what it took to ever ride a motorcycle. And my sources of consternation all involved basic things that I know how to do. But struggling while holding up the class and creating frustration isn’t a good look. From that point on, I never really felt comfortable. So if you are a beginner with zero knowledge I encourage you to hire a private teacher to help through the basics of friction zone, tight perimeter turning, U turns, figure 8s, swerving etc., before taking this course. This is important! The MSS course is not designed to set absolute beginners up for success on their evaluation test. You only get a few tries to nail a figure 8 before later being tested on it. The same goes for all other skills you’re tested on. For absolute beginners get hours upon hours of training and go in with a significant amount of knowledge and practice under your belt. If I could do it all over again I would have invested as much as $500+ / hr for a highly sought after motorcycle coach who’s highly experienced at helping beginner students work through the basics of motorcycle maneuvering and what I see as largely psychological hurdles - because small noted successes (e.g. quick wins) and confidence draw from one another bidirectionally. But since I didn’t, this recent experience has me convinced that I don’t have what it takes to ride motorcycles. It was admittedly disheartening seeing all the students seemingly work through things with ease while I basically picked up on nothing over two days. To be clear, the course is not difficult. But as an absolute beginner, a few tries and on to the test is setting you up for failure. One final piece of advice. If you’re new, get the smallest bike you can find. Doing tight U turns on a larger bike that you’re not familiar with as a total beginner will result in instant failure. It’s physics 101 guys. Get the smallest bike! Don’t be an idiot like I was because in the end, it’s not going to be on the bike, it’s on you. Again, I gave the guys 3 stars because they are good experienced instructors. And I won’t blame another for my failure to keep up or downright incompetence. I went to the MSF course in the Bronx to seek confirmation that I could potentially ride; wasn’t concerned so much about passing or failing. Nothing in my experience suggested that I have or will ever have what it takes to ride a motorcycle. Any confidence I thought I had took a massive nosedive. My advice is to look before you leap. And if you choose to be bold, I encourage that too. You could very well get lucky. It happens. Also remain cognizant of how you learn. If you require constant reps and reinforcement, do the work before you go to the course. Otherwise, you’ll be fighting an uphill battle and may end up feeling as I do; though I sincerely hope that’s never the case. At the end of the day, just sharing my experience because if it’s your goal or dream to ride, the hope is that your journey is filled with experiences that can get you to the desired destination. Best of luck!

Fantastic experience: Excellent..I recommend this motorcycle safety school...Roberto is a very good instructor... thanks alot mr Roberto. Five .

Fantastic experience: I purchased and had the basic rider course with Shah and Yoda. Great experience overall. I very much enjoyed the course and learned a lot.

Fantastic experience: wow, I’m so grateful for the instructors I had - Andrew / Yoda & Paul. they made this such an enjoyable learning experience; their passion shone through as they taught us and made sure we took it seriously. all driving should be taught like this and we’d all be a lot safer on the road for it.

Fantastic experience: i bought the MSS ultimate training package and had all my training done at the Lehman location. from start to end, i had an excellent experience. i had paul for the motorcycling 101 (my first time on a motorcycle *ever*) and he was a patient and kind instructor, and gave me the confidence to tackle the licensing course. gary and yoda were my instructors for the 2-day course - and what a friggin' teaching team they were! they're both able to dispense a huge amount of knowledge in a very effective way, while giving each student the individualized assessment we need to improve with each drill. i still have much, much to learn, but all these guys gave me a solid foundation on which to build. i'm very grateful to all of them. (and i think this us worth mentioning for any women thinking about taking this class: i was a bit apprehensive going to this (you never know, ya know?), but at no point during this experience was i ever made to feel uncomfortable or treated any differently. it might be a small thing for some, but it was very reassuring for me. the instructors were great, the classmmates were cool and supportive of each other, and the energy was good throughout. i would definitely recommend MSS and the Lehman location specifically for anyone interested!)

Fantastic experience: I purchased the Ultimate Training Package, as I had zero experience riding a motorcycle. They teach you everything you need to know. I had Gary and Yoda as instructors, these guys are amazing! They use humor to make the class engaging and they take safety very seriously. They teach from personal experience and make sure to give you tips and tricks on how to be a better driver. The knowledge I learned here is not something I would have known if I practiced on my own. Big shout out to Yoda, Gary, and the rest of the instructors for all their guidance. I was able to pass my exam and get the waiver for my motorcycle license thanks to them.

Fantastic experience: Gary was a great instructor, he really was on hard on us about learning the fundamentals and giving us the tips to getting it right. He gave us the opportunity to flourish and nurture our learning skills during the lessons and helped us understand the pieces to the puzzle to apply to our riding skills. I really appreciated him for his patience. Overall great instructor and super professional.

Fantastic experience: Originally a 1 star Review. My instructors were Ali & Val. During the riding skills EXAM we had the first rider (test taker) during the second part of the test, drive and slam on the front breaks which caused to lock the front wheel flew off his motorcycle hit the ground had to roll off. And after a quick unsupervised 2 second retake at the end when no one was looking by these instructors through the grace of god the Rider passed and was suitable to get his motorcycle license. I'm sure the fact that the rider and Ali (the instructor) who have been talking about motorcycles all day helped this rider out with him being ejected off the bike scene to be shoved under the rug. This is an act of lack of integrity, morals, unprofessionalism. To some extent disrespectful because 9 other riders witness that individual during THE EXAM be launched from his motorcycle, and he was passed, When other Riders failed for minor violation like stalling the bike. These instructors don't deserve to administer a dmv approved motorcycle test with their lack of integrity, and personal preference to their liking. Update: 11/2/2022 After my Honest Review was posted, I was reached out by a Customer Relations Team member from the MSS office by the name of Dave almost Immediately! Dave is the kind of model employee companies should strive to hire and have represent them. Dave reassured me that this matter would be heavily investigated by his higher ups, something that the company does not take lightly, and sympathized with me when it came to agreeing with how wrong these instructors were in their actions the day of the EXAM. I fully cooperated with all investigative questions asked by Dave and right when I was satisfied, Dave goes above and beyond to make sure that I had a pleasant experience, Thank you Dave for everything you have done in this case, and the company should be glad someone like you is representing them. 5 stars.

Fantastic experience: Passed and learned alot of information! All thanks to amazing instructors. Larry, Tim, and Garry were very informative and enthusiastic. They made this class enjoyable and safe. Thanks!

Fantastic experience: Just finished the BRC2 course, excellent experience. Thank you Val and Yoda! And for you Star Wars fans out there - the great Jedi master actually has a first name! Mind. Blown.

Fantastic experience: I took the 2 day course and got my waiver to be licensed! Yoda is an AMAZING instructor! He made me feel very comfortable and he was very patient (and funny). Not only that, but he’s very knowledgeable and will give you a lot of vital information that WILL help you in the real world. 10/10 would recommend. Hope to have him as an instructor again when I take another course!

Fantastic experience: This was a wonderful course. I haven't really rode much in the past 15 years and wanted a way to get back in. Our instructor's were very informative and gave us all the tools we needed to perform. Our lead instructor Shaz mad me feel very comfortable and eased my nerves.... I highly recommend this course for both experienced and new riders!!

Fantastic experience: Excellent motorcycle safety and training course I took in July 2022. Gary and Yoda are great instructors and really a pleasure to work with.

Fantastic experience: Took the two day Basic Waiver Course. Coach Gary and Ali (and assistant Andrew) were tough but professional, detailed, and knowledgeable. Lots of hands on motorcycle practice. The course was awesome and you also get a DMV road test waiver if you pass the Course road test. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Yoda is an extremely engaging and well informed instructor. His classes are very educational and have made me feel significantly better prepared. He emphasizes safety as well as fun in his lessons 10/10 recommend

Fantastic experience: Learned good techniques and motorcycle fundamentals from Gene Hardy. Highly recommend for private instruction!

Fantastic experience: I have been thinking about getting my Motorcycle License for awhile I finally found out about MSS@LEHMAN COLLEGE.What is great is if you have time they prepare you to pass road test and can give you a waiver to take to DMV so all you do now is wait for your license in the mail.Great instructors Yoda, Roberto, Paul and Larry excuse me guys for forgetting names but this course is awesome and take the Ultimate package this will prepare you for motorcycles keep up the good work guys I just completed 2 day s of skills testing today 07-24-2022...

Fantastic experience: gracias hardy por tu gran guía mientras aprendo a andar en motocicleta

Fantastic experience: Had an amazing experience learning here and look forward to more courses. Yoda was more than informative and gave lessons that would help with improving my riding now and in the future.

Fantastic experience: Had to publicly thank MSF Instructors Valentine and Paul. Amazing Job guys. I went there for the basic rider 101 and 2 day course with literally zero knowledge of riding a motorcycle just the desire to learn and get licensed. It was a great experience and thanks to Valentine and Paul they made the entire experience from beginning to end wonderful. Also a huge thank you to instructor Tanya, she was very encouraging and motivating when I made a mistake while on the course. Highly recommend this school and instructors.

Fantastic experience: The two day class was great! Yoda is an amazing instructor, he's very knowledgeable, informative and has lots of patience. Both Yoda and Hardy make you feel extremely comfortable throughout the entire class, and they make it fun along the way. I would most definitely recommend this place they teach you not only how to ride but how to ride safely.

Fantastic experience: Just want to thank my teacher valentine for all his help and support and experience I am a better rider because of his teaching and would highly recommend him if you really want to learn the fundamentals of motorcycle riding . If your a first timer like myself this class made all the difference in my riding skills. Can’t stress how important it is to learn from a pro it’s was worth the money . Thank you again MSS .

Fantastic experience: When I first decided I wanted to learn how to ride a motorcycle I was nervous as hell...didn't know what to expect...the instructor (Valentine) was super cool, as well as his co-instructors Roberto and Paul. Some people don't know how to teach, but these guys were awesome...using a combination of humor and personal stories they put every one at ease and actually taught us to relax first and the rest was easy. If you are trying to learn how to ride I highly suggest coming here...take a 101 class and even an personal lesson to prepare yourself...Best instructors ever.....Thanks guys, you are the best

Fantastic experience: Gene Hardy was an awesome instructor!! Super chill with proper training techniques

Fantastic experience: Best Motorcycle school in the Bronx !! Ali was my instructor and He was very Professional and easy to understand the practice class. I highly recommended

Fantastic experience: I took the experienced driver lesson, even tho im a experience driver.. i learn a lot... ali is the man!

Fantastic experience: Finished the two day class for the waiver along with a private lesson and it was amazing . GARY at Lehman is an amazing instructor. He tweaks the smallest thing which corrects your entire issue. Along with his humor he made the class amazing and I would recommend him to anyone going there. Awesome class

Positive experience: I paid for the ultimate package since I’m a beginner rider. The first course was amazing with a patient teacher; the second course I got sent home because I kept stalling. They didn’t really give me any time to learn from my mistake and expect a lot immediately. I’m leaving 3 stars for that not to be petty but as an honest experience.

Negative experience: I find real stupid of not getting the waiver just cause I didn't pass the knowledge test but I pass the skills. Waste of money in this stupid school. Better off going too zerega Driving-Easy Driving School less time and less drama

Fantastic experience: I just finished the two-day, Basic Rider Course with the Road Test Waiver today. I found the program to be really excellent. It's almost entirely hands-on practice on the bikes with detailed instruction as you work your way from no experience to some basic competence. The drills are terrific, and we were well prepared for the demands of the NY Road Test Waiver Exam. We were a group of six, and Yoda and Kelvin were both great. Not only is this a much more predictable route to getting your Class M license, but you will learn so much more along the way. It was definitely worth the time and the money. I am obviously still a beginner, but I have a better idea of what to work on now as a new rider.

Fantastic experience: Good place for learn

Fantastic experience: I had a private lesson with Gary today. He was beyond fantastic. Thoroughly went through all pre ride protocol, gave great tips, was patient with me and my newbie questions, generously spirited, enthusiastic about working with a new rider, he was everything I’d hoped my instructor would be! Took me through a bunch of really helpful exercises and worked seamlessly with my comfort level. I went from being a bit intimidated at the start, to feeling confident in what I learned and was able to do on the bike my first time out, and now, I couldn’t be more excited for my next ride . If you’re taking a lesson, take it with Gary! He’s the best!

Fantastic experience: Loved every second of it. Apart from the cold weather. I took the advanced course got my waiver and straight to dmv right after thanks to Valentine! He was informative and helpful.

Positive experience: Mixed feeling. Positive: *I do think that overall time and money well spent. *Highly skilled professional instructors who know how to teach and communicate. *From absolute ZERO I learned how to ride a motorcycle... in a parking lot. *They did give me confidence to continue training and give me basics Negative: *If you joined the Basic Riding course with zero experience and expectations to pass riding test just after two days exercises - you are up to disappointment. Even if you did pass - GO TRAIN MORE ON A PARKING LOT.

Fantastic experience: Excellent trainers and classes! My suggestion: before attending the 2-day course, take a private lesson or the Motorcycle 101 course.

Positive experience: Both my girlfriend and I graduated from MSS School. They have a very informative class with capable coaches. But unfortunately, I do have a rather uncomfortable encounter with coach Valentine. I got my MSS waiver in state island, coach Boris is a fantastic coach by the way, love his down to earth attitude. I took my girlfriend to the MSS school in Lehman college in the Bronx. I stayed with my girlfriend the entire time (in my car, of course) since she has low confidence when riding motorcycle, and only occasionally filming her. The bothersome encounter starts when the class finished on the second day. Coach Valentine came over, clearly a little bit irritated and told me that I cannot film the class, also i wasn't suppose to be here visiting my girlfriend either. And all the footages need to be deleted. I was shocked, I obliged because I did not know MSS School doesn't allow video recording and visitations. Then Valentine proceed to go over to the class, and told all of them that i was recording, and I'm not suppose to do that. I was embarrassed, I bet my girlfriend is too. Coach Valentine also told his co-worker to come and take my phone to delete all the footages. I also obliged and gave him my phone so he can manually delete them, I was uncomfortable with this gesture, but i understand. Just to be clear, there is no argument or confrontation during the whole process. I reacted in an obedient way towards Valentine's upset/irritated tone and his co0worker this entire time. To my observation of that day's class, Valentine is easily annoyed, has a bland, straight forward personality, might have a high ego, too. I understand any disagreement would provoke an unfriendly response. Since he also handles my girlfriend's grade, I do not want to make a scene and embarrass her further, also escalating this matter might jeopardize her grade IF Valentine's not professional enough to maintain a rational mind after an argument. With that being said, I remained skeptical with what Valentine had told me and called MSS School right away. MSS School representative made it crystal clear, that i have the right to take videos of the class for personal use ONLY, and I have the right to visit my girlfriend. I was upset by this point, visibly irritated. I had a strong impulsive thought to just go up to the whole class and confront him that what he did was wrong. But I pushed it down, impulse might make you feel good, it also causes unnecessary trouble for the bystanders. So I filed a complaint with MSS School. Representative Carlos is very articulated with his response, also an incredible listener. I was relieved after talking to him. Thank you for putting a closure on this matter, Carlos. PS: Luckily, Iphone has a photo recovery function. or else all the memories would be lost forever.

Fantastic experience: I just had the Motorcycle 101 class and I am extremely happy with the experience. Hardy was my instructor for the class and he is fantastic. He explained all the functions of the motorcycle. The class was progressive and his teaching style and instructions made me feel comfortable once we got on the motorcycles. He answered all of my questions with detail. I feel that I have a much better understanding of how to handle and ride a motorcycle because of Hardy's help.

Fantastic experience: Super fun course would highly recommend to everyone. Was recommended to me by my father and i have no regrets. I had absolutely no knowledge at all of how to ride a bike but my the end of the second day i felt confident enough and passed. Ali was my instructor and his #1 priority was keeping us safe and making sure we were safe enough to even drive outside of the course in general. Super great guy and funny his tough love is very much needed to give you that little bit of extra motivation!

Fantastic experience: Shoutout to Hardy and Valentine for making the learning and certification process fun and smooth. Two knowledgeable instructors who can explain the concepts and maneuvers easily and have great patience with new riders.

Fantastic experience: I had such a fun experience at this location. I took the motorcycle 101 class and my instructor was Andrew St John. He made the info part of the lesson easy and entertaining to listen to which helped with my nerves :D . Highly recommended :)

Fantastic experience: Hardy was awesome today was my first day and I learned so much great with the communication amazing with the tips I felt comfortable I wasn’t scared and this was my very very first time on a bike

Fantastic experience: Great school! I want to thank Ali. He gave us many priceless tips and helped us to avoid many mistakes on the road. Also he gave me advices on my future cross country trip on my Honda NC700XD. It was a very good experience. Thank you guys for making our rides safe

Fantastic experience: Amazing course!! The instructors st John and Ali very fantastic. Very patient and and understanding that the students were beginners. They started with the bare bones basic like mounting the motorcycle to then walked us through the exercises. The teaching methods they used were top notch. They put it in a way that made it digestible to us newbies. St John made an incredible analogy relating the clutch and throttle to money and spending. I was mind blown by how serious they took teaching us. You can tell they were and are very passionate about riding and they put forth the effort in the class. I got my waiver today but it won't be my last day. I'll definitely be back to take more classes in the future. Thank you again st John and Ali.

Fantastic experience: Excellent experience. I enjoyed the class, the instructors are very professional, knowledgeable and fun... I highly recommend taking classes from MSS. Our instructor Andre St. John's ( aka Yoda) was fun , super knowledgle and excellent people skills. A+++

Positive experience: Lessons covers basics of safety and maneuvering. I wish there was time allocated for bike familiarity via warm-up rides and maneuvering. Also direction and description to the actual site can use improvement. Otherwise, total experience and instructor engagement were superb.

Fantastic experience: The coaches help you a lot. Garry was my instructor. In the end, they want you to have fun and ride safely. You won't regret. Everyone that took the course with me was satisfied. If you are a beginner, I would advise you to learn about the friction zone before you take your first course. It will help you a lot. I heard many people say that it's the best $385 they spent.

Fantastic experience: Went here for my experience rider license waiver "BasicRider course 2", was a great experience. Had this awesome and talented dude by the name of "VALENTINE" as my instructor. Definitely recommend!!

Fantastic experience: My private lesson was with Coach Jean Hardy. He was very nice, patient and encouraging. He worked with me in finding the friction zone and maintaining it to do slow maneuvers...such as a u-turn and figure 8. I also worked on my left and right turns along with bringing the motorcycle to a smooth stop. It was an amazing and productive class. I was definitely satisfied with his coaching.

Fantastic experience: I took a few classes and a couple private lessons. Great experience. I want to thank Val, Gary, Re-Lace, and Andrew St. John (aka, Yoda, who has this nickname for a reason and offered so many tips and bike recommendations long after the class was over). I learned something unique from each instructor. All these guys were excellent teachers. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend! I went from not knowing anything about riding to shifting gears and swerving, going over obstacles, counter steering. Just to name a few in 20 days! At times I felt I was a lost case but the instructors, man… they got patience. I highly recommend you take this serious. Be on time. Show respect for the sport, the teachers and yourself. What a wonderful experience. Left me craving more. Thank you Roberto, Valentine, Frank, Re-Lace, Bobby and I apologize to the guy that was training, I forgot your name. A million thanks!

Fantastic experience: Instructors were patient, friendly and informative. They all seem to really care about teaching students how to ride motorcycles properly and safely.

Fantastic experience: Excellent

Fantastic experience: An amazing course taught by professional instructors. If you need to learn to ride a motorcycle this is the place to start. Great instructors, I had Roberto, Gary, and Ali. The motorcycles are nice the course is very thorough. All in all a great experience.

Fantastic experience: I took the basic ride course 1 however I would recommend the ultimate package. People who took motorcycling 101 did much better than I did in the beginning. This class is in a parking lot in the summer and you’re required to wear a helmet, pants and long sleeves so it is very hot. Also wear sunscreen as I now have a weird tan that is just around my eyes and my lip. However, even with the heat this class was extremely worth it. I had so much fun and learned a lot and left with all the skills to begin practicing some more on my own. He instructors here really want you to succeed and give extremely good advice on how to do so. The exercises are great and taught me how to start riding a motorcycle with absolutely no prior experience. I have Roberto as my main instructor and he was excellent and very caring about his students. Come here we’ll rested and eat breakfast and pack a cooler with some ice and water because you will need it and bring snacks such as apples etc. There are no real bathrooms only a porta-potty. I will be going back for the basic ride course 2 with my own bike after I get some more practicing in. Good luck!

Fantastic experience: AWESOME SCHOOL WONDERFUL TEACHERS AND STAFF ESPECIALLY FRANK I WOULD MENTION THE OTHER WONDERFUL NAMES BUT SADLY DONT REMEMBER BUT THANK YOU SO MUCH FRANK AND THE OTHER INSTRUCTORS FOR BEING PATIENT AND BELIEVING IN YOURE STUDENTS IM SO EXCITED TO FINALLY HAVE MY LICENSE AND RIDE MY BIKE! Highly recommend worth every dollar ! Stay safe and choose this course if you want nothing but the best!

Fantastic experience: Ali and Danny are more than any student could ask for. Aside from being experienced and knowledgeable, these two instructors elicited much appreciated empathy and understanding towards us nervous and apprehensive greenhorns. At the same time, they held us to the highest standards. As such, it was nothing but a pleasure learning from them. David? Not so much. Please send him back to Jersey.

Fantastic experience: Good course to learn. Yoda is the instructor you want.

Fantastic experience: Took the two day beginners course here. That was an awesome course my day 1 Frankie, Robert day 2 John,Ali thank you guys such an awesome experience looking forward to take private lessons

Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend if you are considering riding a motorcycle. MMS has multiple class options for riders with no knowledge to those looking to fine tune their skills. I purchased the MSF Ultimate Training Package which includes a basic 101 class for those with no motorcycle knowledge. The class teaches you basic terminology and you learn to ride a motorcycle into first gear. Great for anyone w/o prior knowledge looking to get a general feel and dip their toes in. Second part of the package is the MSF Basic RiderCourse is a "is a comprehensive 2-day licensing course that combines classroom learning with riding exercises." Essentially, you spend most of the two day course on the bike learning skills you will need if you plan on riding on the street. This includes the basics such as different turns, gear shifting, different stops and so forth. The course is highly informative and I would highly recommend. Moreover, passing the course results in a road test waiver. This waiver can also be sent to your insurance for a 15-25% discount in insurance. Over the two day course I had two instructors: Roberto Velez and Andrew St John (Yoda). Both instructors were excellent. They were informative, helpful, patient and engaging. They were fun and ensured that each rider was safely having fun while learning. These two instructors made the course as positive as it was and deserve the credit for producing both a fun and informative weekend. Would highly recommend both Roberto and Andrew, as well as MMS overall.

Fantastic experience: Excellent school to learn to ride a motorcycle great instructors

Fantastic experience: The Ultimate Package is the way to go. My journey started at the College of Staten Island with the 101 intro course as well as a private lesson. My instructor there was Boris, the guy was an awesome teacher. Very patient and a great communicator. From there I did the 2 day license waiver course at Kingsborough College. My instructors there were Yoda and Val. Both extremely knowledgeable, patient and just two all around awesome guys to be around. With their help I passed, we had a great group. Lastly, took another private lesson (you can't enough practice lol) at Lehman College. My instructor was Joel. Like the other's he was really a cool guy. Gave me some great advice and taught me a few nuances that I plan to make a part of my daily riding routine. Credit to MSS for employing such a great group of instructor's. Sorry for the long review but if your considering MSS or getting into motorcycles do it. Happy and safe riding.

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience. I feel much more confident on the road and I learned so many tidbits of information I hadn't thought about that will Literally help save my life! highly recommended. plus spending all that time on real bikes is an incredible experience

Fantastic experience: MSS is the BEST. The instructors Frank Smalls and Yoda are awesome. I learned alot thanx to these guys. If you're interested in getting your Motorcycle license, GO TO MOTORCYCLE SAFETY SCHOOL.

Fantastic experience: If you want to learn to ride. this THE course for you. after 2dys you WILL have safe, sound, fundamental skills in riding. Took the 2dy course over a weekend and 3dys later had my interim license in hand from the DMV. The official license arrived a week later from the DMV. Best money you can spend if you want start out as a safe , controlled motorcyclist. so glad, i listened to my friend advice in recommending this course. cause now i'm a proud owner of my first bike and loving every minute of it!

Fantastic experience: The people here are the best. The instructors teach in a very nice and calm matter. They love to crack jokes all the time. They genuinely were happy when they saw the students progressing. Had a really fun time while learning new things. You could tell they are really passionate about teaching and motorcycles. Would love to go back when/if I can

Fantastic experience: Hi My name is Ricardo The MSS is a great company to learn how to drive a motorcycle if you never did, I didn't. Till I took the Ultimate training package I feel confident when I drive my motorcycle, my hat comes off to Raymond Lopez hes a GREAT instructor besides that hes a good dude all around I recommend him for anyone who wants to learn in group or in private, because of him I got my motorcycle license!!! When the winter is over going to him again to refresh on what I learned. Great company good instructors all around. Drive safe everyone...

Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed the course and the instructors were awesome and very patient.

Fantastic experience: I had literally zero motorcycle experience before I took this class. The fantastic instructors showed us what to do, and how to be safe riders. We ran the drills and I learned a ton. I passed the test and got my waiver card (as did my whole class). And, I just got back from the dmv and I have a motorcycle license now.

Fantastic experience: Amazing instructors! Prior to the BRC I had zero hours of experience. With the help and coaching from John Muniz, Frank Smalls, Daniel Power, and Roberto Velez I feel comfortable and confident enough to start my riding career... running to the DMV this morning to trade my certificate in for a license.

Fantastic experience: Had my class this weekend. Was a great class. The instructors were very knowledgeable. Frank, John, Daniel, and Robert, Thank you for the great experience. Basic skills was awesome. Looking forward to Basic skills 2 .

Fantastic experience: First of all. Anyone who rated this place less than 4 stars is lying. This is the best place and best way to get riding experience and acquire your license. Private lessons are nice yes, but the in depth and hands on learning done at this school and especially this location is priceless. Over the 2 day course I had incredible instructors that guided me through my basic rider course. Andrew St. John and Kelvin, and JP relieves the pressures that comes with trying to learn something for the first time and also encouraged confidence as you progressed. I can’t wait to return with my motorcycle for the advanced class to further improve on the experience I gained through them and that I will gain on the road in the coming months. Also for passing you not only get your license waiver, but a discount on rider insurance.

Fantastic experience: I did the Basic Rider Course. Great experience, excellent instructors, lots of different exercises. Highly recommended!
