Frequently Asked Questions
What are the basic requirements I need in order to take a motorcycle training class?
- You must be able to ride a bicycle
- You must have a valid driver's license
Do I need my own bike?
We will provide a bike for the training. We have a variety of makes and models to meet the different heights of students.
Do I need my own helmet?
It is recommended that you bring your own helmet, but we do have helmets that you can borrow during the class. While we do sanitize the helmets after each class, you should wear a bandana if you need to borrow one.
What do I have to wear?
You must wear the following (please note-you will not be allowed to participate if you do not wear all of the items from the list below):
- DOT-compliant helmet
- Eye protection (helmet face shield, glasses, goggles)
- Long-sleeve shirt or jacket
- Long, non-flare pants made of denim or equivalent or more durable material
- Over-the-ankle boots (sturdy, no high top gym shoes)
- Full-finger gloves, preferably leather
What do I need to do in order to pass the class?
To successfully graduate, students must:
- Attend all sessions
- Be on time for all sessions
- Score 80% or better on a written evaluation
- Pass an on-cycle skills evaluation
If I am under 18, can I still take the class?
A student must be at least 17 years of age and a parent or legal guardian must attend the first range day of class to sign a waiver form. Students under the age of 18 will NOT be allowed to attend unless a parent or legal guardian is present to sign the waiver (NO EXCEPTIONS).
What if I signed up but can't attend?
Due to increasing demand for courses, we cannot issue refunds nor can we reschedule you into another course. There are NO refunds and NO rescheduling. Please be sure that you can attend the course you chose before you register and pay.
What if I'm late or can't attend 1 of the 2 days?
If you miss or are late for any session, you will NOT be allowed to continue in the class and you will NOT be issued a refund nor rescheduled. There are no make-up classes, nor is there time to review missed material.
Does the weather stop a class?
​Dress for weather conditions. We rarely cancel a course because of weather. Due to variables beyond our control, the weather may extend some course times, so allow additional time in your schedule in case a session runs later than scheduled.
