RS MOTORCYCLE TRAINING......WOW BEST AROUND, Rob and his team were superb, from start to finish nothing was a problem, they took me through both my MOD 1 & 2 (Passed today). Rob & Iain were constantly in my ear working with me to improve my ride, they build your confidence on the bike very quickly. There is clearly no better school around and I recommend that anyone wanting to learn contacts Rob right away. Not only was is fun to be out on the road with these guys but hilarious at the same time with some of the funny stories they share over a cup of tea - just make sure you start with a slim waist line as Rob does like a sausage and mushroom roll at lunch.... Not only have I found a good riding school but in time a good bunch of mates as well....Look forward to 1st ride out with the RS team. James

Patience of Saints! 😇🙏 & I just cant praise them enough! Rob & Ian have been fantastic, they knew exactly what I needed & how to teach me! . So many companies are ready to chuck you on a bike, ride you round the block & be done with it! . At @rsmotorcycletraining They love to Ride! And want you to leave with the same passion, confidence & as much knowledge as possible. . Now we all know I have "Dopey" moments but these guys worked round that with so many calm & thoughtful ways of teaching, I just cant thankyou enough for taking that little extra time with me! I so so appreciate it!! 😘

Rob and Ian are on a different level when it comes to teaching. They provided lots of real-time feedback while riding and also at break intervals off the bike. They took time to listen and address areas that I thought I needed to work on. During the 4/5 hours of training all the pieces started to come together and my confidence grew with each step. I can't thank these guys enough. Looking forward to advanced training with them in future!

Rob and his team were hands down the best instructors in the business in the UK in my opinion. They took the time to get to know me and taught me the lifelong skill of riding in a way that just made sense! I really looked forward to our lessons and feel like the ROI on the investment for value I received was well worth it. This is a stark comparison to many of the other schools out there I scoped out that had reviews of treating students like a number and only focusing on passing tests. I highly recommend them to any student who really wants to learn the craft of riding. I will be going back for my advanced riding course soon!

This is the best training school to do your training with, whether you are undertaking your CBT or DAS. In the past I used other training schools to do my CBT and in comparison to what I was taught there, I quickly realised when training with RS Motorcycle training that the training and advice given by the other training schools was not great. Rob and Ian are excellent trainers, they are very professional, highly experience, knowledgable, helpful, encouraging, and friendly. Right from the beginning of your training they make you feel at ease, relaxed, and comfortable, so you can put one hundred percent focus on your training. I have now completed my DAS and feel I made a wise decision in choosing this motorcycle training school. Thank you Rob, thank you Ian. Hats off to the both of you and the team. Best wishes.

As a returning rider I needed to do my CBT. Rob and Ian were amazing. Professional, knowledgeable, experienced and friendly. The bikes were in excellent condition and their route and local area knowledge on the road was impeccable. I will be back for more training and can certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a riding instructor. Today was time and money well spent in the best of company.

What an incredible experience training with RS has been. I can't recommend the guys highly enough to anyone wanting to ride a motorcycle. As many other students of Robs said, you get taught so much more than the fundamentals to pass the tests! I've passed my Mod 1 & passed my Mod 2 test today with RS and so glad I did. Rob has a fantastic way of teaching and showing you how much information there is around you whilst riding to allow you to be safe and prepared for anything, and making it so enjoyable in the process. The Sv650's are great! I'll actually be getting one as a daily commuter after riding them, while also going straight to my KTM dealership to try out the duke 890r I want, which RS have given me the confidence and skills to really enjoy! I'll be going back for further tuition after I've done some miles for one of Rob's advanced days! So honestly, look no further than RS, check out the other reviews! Get in touch with them and you'll have the best training you'll ever receive and have an absolute blast doing it! Can't wait for your planned ride outs next year Rob! All the best, Nick

Absolutely outstanding quality of training by Rob and Ian. I had experienced training gaps from a previous firm and in a few hours they took me from struggling around to passing my mod 2. Really passionate and have a great way of explaining and fixing training issues.

Wow, what can i say, these guys are absolutely brilliant. They don't teach you just to pass your test, they teach you to ride the bike properly and with confidence so that when your test does come along its like just another days ride and on top of that they are great fun to boot. If there were 10 stars for the rating they would get the lot. Thanks.

Rob and his team where fantastic instructors! I did the 3 day DAS course, and CBT, and loved every moment of it. Thorough and precise instruction throughout, Rob builds your confidence at a good pace, and instils safety and forward thinking throughout. As a new dad with an unhappy partner (I'm sure I'm not alone on that one lol) I honestly feel I could not have been in better hands for my motorbike training. Rob focuses on how to ride the bike properly with real emphasis on control and forward planning, whilst retaining the critical safety element, and is brutally honest where he needs to be which hits home hard and ensures you stay safe at all times, constantly thinking of all possible outcomes. As a result of this, rather than just being taught how to 'pass the test', I did not feel like a fish out of water following my pass and hopping on my new 800cc KTM. I passed my MOD 1 & 2 first time, and quickly put over 1000 miles on my new bike within 2 weeks of passing! Thanks a bunch Rob, I will be back for advanced training when time and weather allows :)!

my experience here was short but absolutely outstanding. having failed my mod2 2 weeks prior and without much riding experience; Rob and Ian made me feel sooo confident from the off. they're technical skills of making you understand how a motorcycle works is mind blowing and they're extremely patient in teaching you why and how this happens so that you figure out how to ride the bike yourself. I passed my mod2 after 1 day training and I couldn't be more thankful to these chaps! can't wait to get further training 🙂

Having ridden as a learner for the past 12 years I decided it was time to take a full test at last and I am extremely pleased that I trained with Rob Stokes and Ian at RS Motorcycle Training. I went from updating my CBT to gaining a full licence on a 650cc bike in just 3 days. This included Ron undoing a heap of bad habits that I had collected over the years. Rob's patience, encouragement and skills as a teacher were outstanding - he managed to teach this old dog to learn new tricks and to ride safely and with confidence. i would recommend RS Training to anyone wishing to start on a bike as a beginner right up to experienced riders looking to further extend their riding skills. Thanks Rob and Ian for all the support - which you continue to give even though I have got my full licence and are moving on to buying my own bike. An outstanding service from start to finish.

Rob and his team are thorough in the way they teach to ride motorcycles. I have passed my CBT + Mod 1 and Mod 2 (1st time I might add) with RS Motorcycle Training. The instructors are able to tailor the training to you personally and I can't recommend RS Training enough as I feel like I have been taught well. All the best in the future guys!

I completed my DAS course with Rob and Ian last week and I can’t recommend them enough. The knowledge and experience they have is unrivalled and their patient and calm demeanours are confidence building and reassuring. They don’t teach you how to pass a test, they show you how to ride safely and properly. For me this resulted in successful Mod 1 and 2 passes with 0 minors. The RS team turned me in to a confident rider and gave me skills that I will have for the rest of my life. If you are thinking of doing your DAS and getting a bike licence then these are your guys. I travelled from London and stayed in Crawley for the week as I knew RS were the best around. Rob and Ian, thank you both so much for your patience. I wasn’t the most skilled student but you got me there in the end. I will definitely be back for some advanced rider training.

Rob and RS Motorcycle Training set the bar on tuition very high. Their approach is to teach you to ride to their standards, not just a standard required to get you through a test. They work tirelessly to ensure you are going into your tests confident and prepared, and that you come out of the experience a better, safer rider. I would highly recommend RS Motorcycle Training, and feel I am going to be a much better rider due to the impressive level of detail taught by Rob and Ian.

Rob and Ian.. absolute heroes! I transferred to RS Motorcycle to complete my MOD 2 training after being very dissatisfied with a school in Ditchling industrial estate. The professionalism and warmth of RS Motorcycle was next level! I felt like I had Rob and Ian by my side the whole time and they break down the little important information and really helped me learn how to ride better! They made me confident on my clutch control and re-taught me how to ride more slowly and safely overall. Months ago I failed with 2 majors and 4 minors due to riding 'aggressively' which was how the previous school taught me but with Rob and Ian I passed with flying colours, no faults at all! So if you're reading this I would highly encourage you to train with RS Motorcycles. All the students I rode with this week also passed their tests!

Highly recommend these guys! They are so patient with you during your training and drill in to you what you have to do on the road in order to pass. They genuinely care about you being safe on road and train you not only for your test but give you all the training and tips for after you pass!! I passed first try and am over the moon!! Can't wait to hop on my triumph. Thankyou guys!!! ☺️

Absolutely first class training! Got me a first time pass. They teach you to be safe and confident on the road and their standards are higher than that of the test so you go in feeling confident. Both Rob and Ian are excellent instructors with a wealth of knowledge that they pass onto you. I cannot recommend them enough!

My nervousness in finding an honest instructor who had a lot of patience and outstanding training skills, and who would help me in building up my riding career, seemed to be out of sight. Luckily, a friend of mine introduced me to Rob, ‘who during our telephone conversation, patiently guided me through the whole process and helped me to gain my confidence back on track, something’ which at times, I doubted I would ever succeed in. My previous training via a different training school in London had embossed emptiness, doubts and fear in my mind. However, Rob and his team with a real passion for motorcycling, didn’t let me down, ‘instead they assured me my dream. On the day of training, Rob was very relaxed and friendly’ but at the same time, the explained manoeuvres were very clear and simple. His professionalism’ not only helped me to pass' but to be a ‘better, ‘skilled’ and a ‘safe rider. Today, I have accomplished my full ‘A’ grade DAS unrestricted licence, just in a matter of few days. Thank you, to ‘RS Motorcycles Training Team, Rob, Ian...(these training memories will stay with me forever), and Rob, you are my ‘Hero’.

WHY LEARN TO RIDE?

While the practical benefits of riding a motorcycle, such as cost savings, are certainly compelling, there are also many personal reasons why people choose to learn to ride. Here are a few:

  1. Freedom and independence: Riding a motorcycle gives you a sense of freedom and independence that is hard to replicate in a car. There’s nothing quite like hitting the open road on two wheels and feeling the wind in your face.

  2. Adventure: Riding a motorcycle can be an adventure. Whether you’re exploring new roads or taking a long trip, there’s always a sense of excitement and adventure when you’re on a motorcycle.

  3. Community: There’s a strong sense of community among motorcycle riders. Whether it’s through organized rides or impromptu meetups, riders tend to connect with each other and share a common bond.

  4. Personal growth: Learning to ride a motorcycle requires a certain level of skill and focus, which can help you develop as a person. You’ll learn to be more aware of your surroundings, make quick decisions, and take calculated risks.

  5. Stress relief: Riding a motorcycle can be a great stress reliever. The physical act of riding, combined with the freedom and adventure it offers, can help clear your mind and reduce stress.

The decision to learn to ride a motorcycle is a personal one that depends on your individual interests and goals. However, the benefits of riding are many and varied and may be worth considering if you’re looking for a new challenge or adventure.

FUN

On a motorcycle, you have much more freedom, and once you learn how to ride safely, almost all riders report that it’s far more fun than driving.

LESS TRAFFIC

On a motorcycle, you have much more freedom, and once you learn how to ride safely, almost all riders report that it’s far more fun than driving.

SOCIAL

On a motorcycle, you have much more freedom, to go any where & join friends or make new friends, its limitless, travel abroad, the only barrier is you and once you learn how to ride safely, it’s far more fun 

PERSONALITY

There are so many ways to adapt and customize your motorcycle that just isn’t available with cars. So you can truly customize your bike to be whatever you want it to be (within reason, of course!).

COST

Typically, it is cheaper to buy and run a motorcycle than a car. Motorcycles are usually more fuel-efficient, cost less in road tax, face lower toll charges, are cheaper to maintain, and cost less in insurance.
