Motorcycle Riding Courses for Experienced Riders

Pacific Motorcycle Training

We offer three different options for riders who want to become better and safer on the road.

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.

For Experienced Riders

Become a better—and safer—rider using your own motorcycle with our Intermediate Riding Clinic. Or take your cornering and crash-avoidance skills to the highest level with our Advanced Riding Clinics, taught only by the best certified instructors in the Bay Area!

"Craig, and his crew at Pacific Motorcycle Training are pros, nuff said. They know their stuff and make a conscious effort to pass it along to you. If your goal is to know how to ride and be safe doing it, you've come to the right place. Prepare to feel confident on the open highway after completion; this course is the real deal."

"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!"

"Dan and Wyatt were great instructors. Wyatt is super chill and explains well while offering his own tips to make sure you really understand. Dan is super lighthearted and is always cracking jokes so you don’t feel too bad or beat yourself up when you make a mistake. I would definitely recommend taking this class as a first time rider they are super patient with you no matter how many times you stall the bike, make sure to bring snacks it’s a decent amount of time to be rider and learning."

"The instructors, Wyatt and Steve were great! Before this class, I had not even sat on a motorcycle for more than 10 seconds (maybe). Their approach to teaching and coaching was very warm and welcoming and was exactly what a beginner needs to understand the basics, risks, safety, and what happens or doesn’t happen when performing riding techniques. I have already recommended this class to friends and family and hope they also get the top tier teachings I experienced."

"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!"
