Fantastic experience: I thought that our coaches did a very good job. They were loud and clear when speaking and in my opinion good teachers, no one was ever rood or mean in any way and they knew how to explain what I was doing wrong and how to explain it. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone who’s looking to get their M license.

Fantastic experience: Hey hey! The training was AMAZING! I really liked how the guys teach, how they explain everything in detail, and create a friendly atmosphere! They genuinely do everything to help the student develop skills at the level of muscle memory. I never thought it was possible to gain such a wealth of knowledge and experience in just two days. It was amazing! Even though my English isn’t perfect and I don’t understand everything yet, you can easily ask again, and they will explain everything you need. Thank you, Dylan, Wyatt, and Anthony. You are super friendly and incredibly interesting guys!

Wyatt, Erin, and Q are great instructors! They are super knowledgeable and patient. Throughout the course, they did a great job at building up everyone’s confidence and preparing them for the assessment. I will definitely be taking the intermediate course once I get my own bike!

Jessie Randolph (volatileskies) 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed this motorcycle course. I have been riding for over two years and would consider myself an intermediate rider. The teachers were fantastic - Wyatt and another guy but I can’t remember his name :/ they were clear, fun and knowledgeable, and the course was set out really well. I was thankful that we did similar drills/exercises over and over again to really impress it into our memory and get it right, and like I said, the teachers were excellent . When I signed up I wasn’t sure how I would like it, but I was thoroughly impressed and it exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend this course and will be looking into taking the more advanced courses in the future.

He had to make hard choices and had the grit to say who can and who can’t. Not for personal reasons, but for the safety of yourself and others around you, who was ready and not. Me included.

Storm Arciga 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I didn’t take any pictures but definitely want to share my experience here because it was an excellent experience and paved the way for me to hop on my new bike much more comfortably. My classes here were August 24th and 25th with the instructors being Wyatt and Thomas the first day, and Wyatt and Tony the second day. All of them were super kind and gave very informative instruction to help improve our rider training. On day one when we finally started up shifting gears, it felt a little overwhelming, but the more we rode and the more it was put into action, the more natural it began to feel and easier that it became. Still, it wasn’t until day two that I received more confidence in my decision to ride a motorcycle on the street. I started feeling out the bike much more in the second day and became way more comfortable leaning with my turns. When we finally got to weaving, I struggled to keep a good pace and balance as I stood in first gear, trying to use the clutch but also stressing over stalling which would lead me to use the throttle and it just wasn’t working too well for me. This same problem carried over to the sharp turns. Both Wyatt and Tony encouraged trying it in 2nd gear to see what felt more comfortable. As I looped back around Tony asked “are you in second gear” to which I switched to second despite being nervous and thinking it would be too fast for weaving. Still, I tried it and kept it in that “friction zone” and that was all I needed! It may have seemed like something so small but it was perfect. It made weaving and sharp turns much easier and got me way more comfortable being in that higher gear, even if it’s just one above 1st. Sometimes all it takes is just that extra push out of your comfort zone, and as they say, “trusting the bike” to get you feeling way more comfortable, and when you’re comfortable you ride better and much safer. So I just want to give a huge thanks to Wyatt, Thomas, and Tony for being such excellent, kind, informative, and overall just amazing instructors and making the course a great experience. I don’t normally write reviews but felt it was just needed and a good way to show my gratitude not only for the course, but for the people who are teaching it as well :)

Fantastic experience: Excellent experience. Instructors were capable, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. They always had specialized feedback for each student after a practice exercise that I found very helpful in improving my technique. The course was informative and we had plenty of opportunity to practice on the bikes. Have already recommended to several friends who are looking to take the CMSP. The only downside was that most of the training bikes were very old and had seen better days. Would encourage PMT to invest in updating them, it would make the experience even better.

Fantastic experience: ️ Fantastic Beginner Experience: Boosted Confidence on the Road I recently completed the motorcycle course on April 27-28, and as someone with minimal experience, I can't emphasize enough how valuable this course was for me. Not only was it incredibly enjoyable, but it also significantly enhanced my confidence in handling a motorcycle. The instructors were the true stars of the show. Their wealth of experience was evident, and they adeptly conveyed essential knowledge while making the learning process engaging and fun. Despite my initial nerves, their clear explanations, accompanied by real-life examples, helped me grasp the do's and don'ts of motorcycle riding. Though I struggle with remembering names, one instructor stood out for me. Their engaging manner and ability to project their voice over the engine noises made every lesson crystal clear. What impressed me most was their attentiveness. They promptly addressed any errors in our riding techniques, ensuring that we steered clear of developing bad habits. My biggest takeaway from the course? Listen to the instructors. Their guidance equips you not just with the necessary skills, but also with a profound sense of safety on the road. Thanks to their dedication, I now feel more prepared than ever to hit the streets on my motorcycle. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone looking to kickstart their journey into motorcycling. I, for one, am eagerly looking forward to enrolling in future courses and honing my skills further.

Geige Harless 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: My instructors Steve and Erin for the first day were amazing. They were great at getting me acquainted with the bike, feeling comfortable, and boosting my confidence. They were exactly what I needed for my first day riding. My instructors Dylan and Crusoe for the 2nd day were equally amazing. They took everything we learned from the first day and expanded on it. They were extremely knowledgeable and could exactly pin point my errors so I could work on them in real time. Dylan was very charismatic and made the class fun, while Crusoe was straightforward and precise. They complimented each other very well. I would definitely take the intermediate course or advanced course if any of these instructors were teaching them. Overall my experience was awesome. I’m so damn happy I took this course!

Fantastic experience: Outstanding class, instructors knew the material but also provided me insightful tips that really made a difference in real time. I appreciated the feedback and truthfully it was not an easy class to complete and requires stamina. Elvie and Erin were so supportive and so was Tony, highly valued their comments and feedback. Relax elbows, ride smoothly and don’t get overly confident. I would recommend all three levels of riding before getting out on the road. Learned a lot! One suggestion would be to have one of the instructors lead all the riding exercises, at times I could not shift because the rider in front of me didn’t reach speed. Thank you and I look forward for an intermediate class to follow

Gabrielle Y 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I took the beginner course and had 3 great instructors--Q, Crusoe, and Kevin. The beginner course isn't enough experience to get you ready to ride on the street, but it's enough to get your license. That's insane if you think about it. The DMV will let you ride after 10 hours of practice. Anyway, that's more of an issue with the driving laws--not an issue with this company. The instructors are aware of that and went above and beyond and had us practice riding through a pretend 4-way stop to get "street practice." Also, the week before training, I was transferred to a different location because their admins noticed I'm short. They wanted to make sure I'd have acess to a shorter bike I'd fit. This company really cares about making sure you have a good experience.

Michele Willson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: As a 56 year old woman who rode scooters years ago, I decided it was time to make an adventure and learn how to ride a motorcycle. I signed up for Pacific Motorcycle Training and am so happy I did! Having great reviews, both the E-Morotcycle Training Course and the Behind-the-Wheel training were exceptional. I learned all of the basics on the E-Training and started from the very beginning at the Riding Class. After two days of hands on practice I was comfortable, though still cautious, and ready to ride around my neighborhood gaining the street experience I need before hitting the highway. The Riding Instructors are absolutely fantastic! They love to ride and want everyone interested to learn how to safely become part of the motorcycle community. They are extremely encouraging with constructive criticism when needed. I did not feel intimated at all because we learned the basics and progressed from there. I know my previous experience of riding bicycles, driving a manual car and riding scooters years ago helped me tremendously, but a motorcycle is a different skill set and I am excited to continue learning how to ride!

They were both incredibly knowledgeable and you could tell they genuinely cared about making sure all the participants understood the responsibility of riding. Definitely recommend taking this course if you’re thinking about riding motorcycles.

Fantastic experience: Great class and teachers. Q, Crusoe, and Dylan really did a great job, especially with coaching some of the first time riders. I used to ride a dirt bike when I was younger and I found this class a great refresher for getting back on the road and I highly recommend this taking courses here vs Bay Area Motorcycle Training (which I've taken before)

Fantastic experience: Very great experience, just remember to wear warm! I received instructions from Q, Crusoe(?) and Dylan(?), and they are very passionate and patient. They answered all my questions, from motorcycle skills to motorcycle gears and parts. Learned a lot! Couldn’t recommend more!

Fantastic experience: This was a wonderful experience. All three instructors were marvelous. They were each very different but they were all encouraging and strived to make sure we did things correctly and learned. They never corrected anyone in a way that made them feel bad or embarrassed. Don't get me wrong they quickly corrected mistakes, but not in a negative way. Also the bike I used was in perfect working condition and I heard no complaints from anyone else about their bikes. I walked in never having riden and walked out able to control a bike safely. This won't be the last class I take from them on this journey of learning to ride.

Fantastic experience: All three instructors I had really knocked it out of the park. The training hours felt like time and money very well-spent. I gained concrete skills on the bike and got really good feedback on my technique as I learned. Instructors were direct yet patient and did well managing a variety of skill levels. There were two instructors each day and they did great managing a fairly large group. It never felt like too many people or like I didn't have the chance to ask questions. Everything was organized and set up ahead of time for the most efficient use of class time. All three instructors clearly care very deeply about making sure riders learn the skills to be as safe as possible out on the road. Thank you guys for a great course!!!

Fantastic experience: I had a very very good experience with both my instructor’s Tony and Dillon. They were very patient and informative, and motivated to help us understand the risks involved can be lowered with good training. They made a new rider feel welcomed into the community and i couldn’t be more excited to begin riding! Just one thing is my bikes clutch/ gear box was very loose and funky and i just suggest maybe checking on the mechanics/quality of the bikes often so we when new riders ride them for the first time they get a good first hands on experience. I was in the west borough middle school class 3/25-3/26 and used red Honda Grom , i believe under the name Olivia 111234? But other than that one suggestion i you truly enjoyed the course and would definitely suggest it or any other new riders

Fantastic experience: 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.

Andrei Rollon 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Instructors are very professional and accomodating. They will guide you through all the basics and safety of riding. I wish they have uphill and downhill exercises too. Highly recommended!!!
