Motorcycle Road Test Escort

We provide a small Motorcycle to use on the test and a NYS motorcycle licensed driver to go with you.   We meet one hour before your test to review and warm-up.  If you pass, you will receive your motorcycle operators license on the spot!  There is no waiting of 4-6 weeks for a road test waiver in the mail. Road Tests are scheduled through the Department of Motor Vehicles Web Site. We supply the Motorcycle, licensed driver, helmet, motorcycle insurance and registration. Car available upon request. When scheduling a road test, please block off on your calendar the hour before your scheduled test time for review and preparation and one hour for the test, therefore a 2:00pm road test would be block time from 1-3pm.

Beginner Prep

Often used as preparation for a Motorcycle Safety Foundation, Basic Rider Course (BRC).  We will show you the motorcycle controls and teach you the basic skills to get started in a patient, laid back environment.  For a “never ridden before” student: This proves to relief some stress, fear and frustration that may arise in a fast paced, large group setting.  A KickSTART lesson can help to minimize your chances of injury and increase your ability to learn.  Get a KickSTART on the BRC!  Many new Riders come for a lesson after a course to review, refresh, and continue their learning.

Over-the-Road

The first time out into traffic can be nerve-wracking and even scary.  Don't go it alone!  We will take you out over the road at speeds that are comfortable to you.  You may choose to go out on one of our bikes, or on your own.  We will take you into different traffic environments as your skill level allows.  No pressure…you can just pull over and stop anywhere and anytime it is safe to do so…we will stop and talk.  If that is all for that day, we will trailer or ride the bike back for you.
