Indie Motorcycle Training: Reviews

5/5 (199 Reviews)

Fantastic experience: Very good experience, knowledgeable staff that gives great advice, it's a calm environment and they're honest and straight forward, safety is very important to them as well which is a bonus.

Sergei Sokolov 1 year ago

Negative experience: I don’t usually write Google reviews, but this company has significant room for improvement. 1) Communication is a challenge. Reaching someone by phone is nearly impossible. Emails? Sure, but waiting a couple of days for a response is unacceptable. 2) It took three weeks to get a refund for a lesson I never attended. That’s way too long. 3) The listed address is misleading. They aren’t actually located there—you’ll need to travel out of the city. This can be a huge inconvenience, especially for those without a car. 4) I had a test scheduled in the morning, but no one showed up. I spent an hour at their premises trying to reach someone. Eventually, they managed to reschedule my test for the following week, and that part went fine. However, the whole situation was extremely unprofessional and did nothing to compensate for the two-hour drive I made from London that morning.

Thank you for your review. We are always striving to improve our processes and procedures and welcome feedback. As with many schools, we accept that phone contact can at times be challenging. Due to the nature of our work we are on bikes most of the day and with being a small company our admin staff are part time. However emails are generally responded to quickly as their nature makes them easier to respond too. From other feedback we have received regarding how our admin staff deal with contact, enquiries, bookings and emails, the responses have been very complementary. We do endeavour to refund as quickly as possible, but sometimes this can be delayed due to the part time nature of our admin staff; but all refunds are processed when requested. The listed address refers to the location of part our school activities. You would have been informed of the actual location of the meeting place for that day well in advance. We accept that due to unforeseen circumstances we failed you on that day and communication could have been better. However we did then work hard to sort out a replacement test as quickly as possible, meeting your expectations and ultimately securing your test pass. We have taken onboard your comments and will endeavour to improve where neccessary.

Fantastic experience: Just took my cbt here. I did a cbt 2 years ago somewhere else and it was standard but the guys at indie motorcycle are the best instructors you could ask for. Highly highly recommend for first time riders who feel any nerves, they will be settled very quick. Also amazing for experienced riders who have had previous cbts. 10/10 day

Josephine Thomas 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I did both my CBT and my DAS with indie, they've been extremely supportive and friendly, but also professional and made sure I was riding safely when training me. Both Sav and James have made me feel really confident riding the bikes and calmed my nerves. I passed both mod 1 and mod 2 first tries thanks to their great training! Would definitely recommend, especially as a woman as they didn't treat me any differently because of it. Thank you guys!

Ben 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: After having a bit of a rushed CBT with a different school, I communicated how I didn’t feel as confident and would need some more training to feel safe. I was so happy speaking to someone on the phone who was so understanding of the situation and helped me find what I needed and sorted it out with no problem. James being my instructor for the session was amazing. Super patient and listened to my concerns whilst putting no pressure on me which relieved me of my anxiety and able to successfully do all the manoeuvres needed. Really pleased and looking forward to doing my A2 here in the future!

Fantastic experience: Did my CBT here on 21/9/24 Very helpful and patient instructors, nice motorbikes and made everyone feel really comfortable. Would highly recommend using them. And i came away with the certificate!

Piotr Spyrka 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Manual CBT completed here 08/09/2024 This was my second time attempting the CBT course after a previous course at a different provider 6 years ago that I had passed, but had a learning experience so rough I stuck to car driving afterwards. Coming into this I had done some work to prepare on scooters and a manual bike. I was still nervous revisiting the CBT especially since it was supposed to rain. What a revelation! The instructors got to know everyone and their their passion for riding translated into care for people riding safely. The atmosphere was friendly, professional - there were no snide comments and bantering about other road users, be they elderly drivers in Nissan Micras or Cyclists. There were a variety of people at different experience levels and age groups, from teenagers, cyclists, motorists and while we were mostly blokes there was a lady among us too. Despite the rain, the instructors remained patient, everyone's spirits stayed intact and the quality of instruction was good enough that all 8 attendees came away with a certificate. I would recommend you give Indie a try and I would be open to coming back for the direct access course. As someone who probably needed more seat time and confidence building before going I would say to anyone going with no experience and anxiety to be open to not passing first time but not giving up because all seat time is valuable and useful.

Mike Cuthbert 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Probably the best training I have ever received. From CBT to MOD2 (Even made the infamous list...) James and Sav were on top of it all. They understand every individual and communicate extremely well! P.S If you pick another company you are wrong.

Fantastic experience: So glad I chose Indie for DAS Training - their excellent, patient tuition got me first time passes on MOD1 and 2, despite my zero starting skills and killer nerves... Great tuition from lovely people.

matt chandler 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Second time taking the CBT first time I was not quite ready. I had a amazing experience both times first was just getting used to a manual bike as never ridden a motorbike before. Second time I felt much more confident and felt more natural riding and changing gears, I am a bit of an old timer started late in life but what an experience. A special thanks to James and Laurence who got me through to pass the CBT they made us all feel relaxed and at ease with plenty of knowledge to offer. Thanks

Alexandros Anagnostou 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: James is a fantastic instructor! The whole process of the training and the test for the cbt was a fun experience instead of a stressful chore. I highly recommend this school to anyone!

Fantastic experience: I took my CBT and had James as a instructor last year, after riding a 125cc for a while I decided to go for a full license, took what they call the 4 day course, i would like to say thank you to the whole team Suzanne, James and Sav it's been a easy experience and learnt a lot, look no further if you want a professional motorcycle school,I passed everything first time, thanks again indie motorcycle training

Adam Blacker 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Passed my CBT under the guidance of James. Following that I undertook the conversion to a manual bike and finally Sav and James were my instructors for my direct access course. I passed my Mod 1 and 2 with no minors and now have my full A licence -absolutely chuffed to bits! All in the space of a few weeks too. Fantastic training. Sav and James are great at building confidence for new riders - needed when jumping on a 650cc machine for the first time in the pouring rain! Thanks fellas Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Great teaching approach, professional but not boring. started simple but covered a lot of detail, from kit, road safety, positioning. Then laps of the concrete and cones until we’re comfortable and confident. Before hitting the road! Great day. Dave was a fantastic instructor! Highly recommend

Joshua Treadgold 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I just completed my cbt and it’s the best place I’ve ever been and the instructor Dave brought a new amazing way to teaching would 100% recommended to anyone starting out.

Semih Altinpinar 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent overall experience, my instructor, Dave, was fabulous and very supportive. Did my CBT yesterday in Tunbridge Wells with Indie Motorcycle Training. As a first time motorcycle rider and it was a flawless experience. My instructor, Dave, was very supportive, helpful and gave excellent tips throughout the day. I found his sense of humour and enthusiastic attitude very encouraging, which helped calm any nerves I had. He was clearly very experienced in real-life riding and had lots of key knowledge that you wouldn't find everywhere. The facilities were nice also, we had a nice indoor classroom to go through the theory aspects as well as some nice outdoor areas to sit in during lunch. As well as this, the geared motorcycle of choice was a Kawasaki Z125 which was a joy to learn on and felt very nice to ride, even with my lack of experience. To anyone considering doing their CBT, I would wholeheartedly recommend as it was great fun and a valuable experience, particularly with Indie.

Michael Wills 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Indie Motorcycle Training helped me through my DAS license. Sav was my trainer for a 4 day pack and he was brilliant in not just coaching about essentials to be a good rider, he also gave a much broader perspective of hazard perception and being proactive on the road in picking up key information...overall a great experience and would recommend Indie for anyone who is keen to go through the process..thanks to James too, amazing guy with varied experience, gave some good tips on the day of Mod2 test...I'm a very proud full license holder now....cheers to Indie...

Wojciech Szkoda 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Did my CBT with these guys yesterday (05/05/2024) and what can I say. Fantastic tutors, they’re there to make sure you’re safe to ride and give you the best training possible to ensure you can get out on the road and chase your dreams of riding on two wheels. This is the second time I’ve passed my CBT with these guys, and I’ll be back in a few months to do my full licence. Highly recommended.

Cheryl Aitchison 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Indie training enough. I was so tense getting on they made me feel so relaxed with their calm demeanour. This was my second time with them, and I passed. It is so reassuring that they will not put you out there unless they are confident with your ability. Your safety is paramount to them and they should be held in high regard for this. Thanks again guys, will see you when I’m ready for the next level.

Fantastic experience: I did both my CBT and Direct Access Training with James and Sav and can recommend them without hesitation. I decided to take the training in the cold and wet of February and despite this they were enthusiastic, patient and kind throughout my training. They prepared me well for both my tests and not only was the training thorough, they made it fun as well.

letitia church 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Sav enough! I had my cbt over the weekend and I was instantly put at ease! From paddock training to road training which I was extremely nervous about, I had told Sav and it was instantly noted by himself! Again I can’t recommend this training group enough! See you when it’s big license time!

Lars Milner 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Today I did my third CBT with sav as the instructor. He’s an excellent teacher, experienced rider and very patient and explanatory with beginner riders. He also gave me good advice for passing the a2 test that I will definitely book with indie motorcycle training.

Ryan Meader 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Very fair, well communicated course. Light hearted and serious when needed. Will be back for full license to meet James and sac once again

Mark Gilham 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Hard working, diligent and hugely informative. Just three of many reasons why I would always highly recommend Indie Motorcycle Training to anyone either taking their CBT, aiming for a licence or simply advancing their knowledge of riding. It's not just about riding a motorbike but protecting your life via knowledge and perception in the ever increasingly dangerous world of road use. Absolutely essential.

Jack 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Had a great CBT with them last month, great instructors and they actually go in depth of what you need to know. Brilliant learning environment would highly recommend for anyone who wants to learn to ride

Nicky Trigg 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Did my second CBT today. As before instructions were super helpful and professional but kept the training chill, really a pleasant experience would recommend anyone looking to do any sort of bike licence or training to come here, they are fantastic!

William Bernardo 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Did my A2 to A upgrade, had one day full training with sav which was helpful as my last test was 3 years ago. Any questions were answered and any errors I made were corrected so the training really helped me a lot. The weather was cold and pouring it down but a stop at Starbucks & McDonald’s throughout the day for some food, warmth and a chat really made it better! I rode the z650 which was very comfortable as the seat height is low and easy to ride. Finished my module 2 today, I felt really comfortable on the road and I got the pass. Thanks guys.

Jan Fetzer 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Took a 3h practical lesson as a refresher to get back on the bike after 21 years of not riding. The ride went perfectly and gave me exactly what I was after: a bit of guided support and some advanced riding tips to help me get back into the swing of things.

Rhonda Hasell 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I completed my mod 1 and mod 2 with James and Sav. I also had a few extra training days. I really enjoyed the training and found both instructors were really calm , encouraging and patient. The schools motorbikes are in good condition and really nice to ride. The days out on the road are lots of fun and we stopped at some nice cafes etc that provided a good chance to look at bikes! I would highly recommend this motorcycle school for anyone that is looking for expert tuition with relaxed and friendly vibe.

Ben Murphy 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: These guys are great. Make it fun but informative and train you to a really high standard to make the test feel a lot easier than you expect. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for both CBT and full licence. Oh and quality kit to use as well.

Ash H 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can't thank James and Sav enough for their training to help me achieve my full licence first time round. They're both very knowledgeable and great instructors to have teach you everything you need to know. The training is great and enjoyable being out and about, also the guys know some lovely places to stop for lunch etc. If there's anything you feel unsure about the guys will be on hand to help. Once again, thanks guys for all your help, see you out on the road!

Sue Waterhouse 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I training with Indie for both my CBT and full licence. I can not rate them highly enough. They are very knowledgeable and easily adapt their training style to suit any ability level. I also had great fun. I highly recommend choosing Indie.

Marc Nyberg 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Took my CBT today (26/11/23) and the experience was fantastic. Had a group of two which was perfect as there was a geared and an auto test at the same time. Everything was explained very clearly, even demonstrates which you don’t get at most other centres. Great road training as well, clear instructions but let you ride instead of talking the whole time like some others. Lovely bikes as well took the CBT on a Z125 which made for an even better experience. 5/5 easily!

Alpha 1 Fire 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am abit late on my review, but I would Highley recommend this place , not only do the instructors take care of you and are always happy to answer any questions , but you get to joke around with them and ride some motorcycles, what can be any better than that

Doug Peel 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Passed the module 2 test of for my full motorcycle licence today. Long process from CBT to theory & hazard perception to mod 1 to today, all with the instruction, guidance and support of Sav and James at Indie MCT. Great guys, excellent instructors, and the right outcome - can’t ask for more than that!

Carlos Giraldo 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I did my CBT today (12/11/23) the instructor was absolutely brilliant, he knew how to explain everything perfectly and made the whole experience really enjoyable

Pogo1991 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great instructors with a nice assortment of training vehicles. Had one single day of training to assess how much I would need and subsequently booked another 3 day course (2 days training and 2 half days for mod 1 and mod 2). Training itself was quite relaxing and confidence building. Both Sav and Ian are very knowledgeable and are happy to give you advice to help you gain the skills needed to get your licence. Will be back with my brother to get him back into biking after his 20 year break from it and would absolutely recommend this team for your bike training needs. Edit 27.12.23: Came back for a "back to riding" training with my brother who hasn't sat on a big bike for well over a decade. It was again a great training day, which built up a lot of confidence in his riding abilities and we also went over some more advanced riding techniques (counter steering and limit points), so even I learned a lot on this outing. Sav again was a great instructor and made the day feel less like training and more like a day out with friends (even though we still learnt a lot). Would absolutely reccomend people to get some advanced training here because it will help you be a better rider!

olly sanders 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have recently completed both my CBT and DAS training with Indie. Sav and James create a fun, friendly and relaxed environment and their knowledge about all things biking is second to none. I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience with them and now I have passed my full bike test I’m almost sad my training is over. I could not recommend Indie highly enough!

Luke Donoghue 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had a great day being trained by Martin and James recently. Their knowledge and approach creates a friendly, calm and enjoyable environment even in the pouring rain! The delivery of the training was brilliant, and I was grateful for their honest feedback in ensuring you remain safe. I highly recommend booking your training with these guys regardless of your experience. Get out to the road or not, you will have a great day.

Jjjj Ssss 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: There is a reason they're 5 star! I previously failed my Mod 2 with another school and life got so busy that i hadn't been on a bike in months - I then took 1 Mod2 lesson with Sav and then passed my Mod 2 two days later! I would recommend this school to anyone who is doing their bike licence. I learnt alot and now have my licence.

Dale Cabro 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Really good place to do your CBT, the instructors are very helpful and took me from 0, as I did had no past experience. Recommend it!

Jamie Waterhouse 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I went to Indie for my CBT then the 5 day intensive course. Both Sav and James were fantastic and both train in different styles which compliment each other beautifully. They were very supportive and made learning feel like a group rude for the day and not lessons. Both of them supported me in passing my module 1 and 2 first time effortlessly. They focus on being safe on the road and attempt to prepare you for as much as possible not just passing your tests. Each session was a brilliant ride out and they are very knowledgeable.

Marco Franzini 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Top guys and indie can’t rate them highly enough. I went from never riding a bike to getting my full licence within 8 weeks. Excellent training, patience and knowledge from the guys there. Would definitely recommend to any new riders.

harry stevenson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Where do I start, these boys are spot on. I went to them doing the DAS full bike licence. I passed both first time due to the amazing training from both instructors sav and James. Really genuine guys, and a pleasure to work with. 100% would recommend.

Chloe Pereira 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Can't recommend Indie highly enough. James, Martin and Sav are all so great, really nice guys, encouraging and knowledgeable. They really want you to succeed but they won't compromise safety for it. As someone who felt their first CBT course was a disaster, and almost didn't go back, they were brilliant when I tried again and really supportive. Full of good humour, down to earth and just generally a great bunch of people. Looking forward now to getting my miles in on a 125 then going back to Indie for my Direct Access.

Max Baker 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Did my CBT with Sav and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor! He was great to be around and helped me iron out all my imperfections whilst still making it an enjoyable experience. He was really knowledgable and had a brilliant attitude towards riding and teaching. Indie Motorcycle Training as a whole is brilliant and I am planning on booking my full A license training with them once I have a few thousand miles of riding experience. Couldn’t recommend them enough!! Highly recommend, don’t even hesitate!

Fantastic experience: I passed my cbt yesterday with your amazing colleague’s (James & Sav). I will highly recommend your training centre to anyone wishing to a cbt or full bike. Great team great company.

Nugget 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. The instruction provided by Sav and James allows you to gain knowledge and confidence quickly. They are not only hugely experienced but clearly a great team. Both classroom and on the road training was clear and informative with huge emphasis on safety. As a newbie it was very welcome instruction and will be a constant memory when swinging my leg over. People often joke about CBT being easy but these guys take it extremely seriously to get you going and to keep you safe. Many thanks and will happily be a return customer for next stage.

Fantastic experience: Been here twice now for Motorcycle Riding Training, you won't find more knowledgeable or nicer trainers anywhere else. Bikes, Helmets, Gloves and Jackets are provided so if you're completely new there's no previous costs too.

Fantastic experience: Just passed my CBT recently using indie motorcycle training. Big thank you to the instructors for talking their time and being helpful in every single way! Especially a big thank you to James who took me from never riding a bike to being the most confident I could feel on 2 wheels.

Fantastic experience: Just passed my Category A licence with the Indie boys on a 4 day DAS course having passing my CBT with them 1.5 years ago. Sav and James are incredible instructors… personable, knowledgable and both with a great teaching style that puts you at ease and hones your road craft. Definitely recommend using Indie for all your motorbike training. Thanks again guys… top notch!

Fantastic experience: Can’t Thank Indie enough, I had been struggling to pass my Mod 1 with another school and kept failing. After putting getting my license off, I found indie and booked a course. First day I had Sav who was brilliant, then James for the rest. Both really helpful instructors, really made learning like riding with mates. Passed both Mod 1 and 2 first time with them, can’t recommend them enough. Choose the right school and it can be done, will be back for DAS

Fantastic experience: Did my CBT today, great instructor who gave great training and advice for riding. The only thing they couldn’t control was the rain for the on the road training!!! Would recommend as I have done my CBT twice with them now in 2 years. Good team.

Fantastic experience: James is a great instructor, he makes sure you understand the concepts and apply it when practicing. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my DAS.

Fantastic experience: Completed my CBT with Sav and James, both were amazing instructors. Extremely patient, gave very good advice without being condescending, and overall made sure everyone felt comfortable on the bikes. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get started or doing their full license :)

Fantastic experience: James and Sav were brilliant, we had a group with mixed experience and ages for our CBT day and they still tailored it to each of our needs. Bikes and all the kit was in great condition, we had a fun and successful day, I highly recommend Indie mt

Fantastic experience: Thoroughly enjoyed my training with James - he's an awesome and very knowledgeable instructor. Most importantly, all three days felt like I was riding around picturesque Kent with my friends (whilst actually learning how to ride and getting valuable feedback), as opposed to just getting dry theoretical advice on what to do or what not to do, as I did on my CBT course in London. Super happy that I found and chose Indie Motorcycle Training for my DAS course! Keep up the good work guys and thanks so much once more!

Hey mate, that's how we like to think we run things. You have time riding round the countryside and learning the proper techniques of motorcycle control. Glad to have met you and hope you keep in touch.
