XS Rider Training School: Reviews
Fantastic experience: The best driving school in England, full professionalism, expert approach to people and very nice people, I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn to ride a motorcycle well in nice company.
Fantastic experience: Excellent! Passed my full bike licence today thanks to xs rider training school and there excellent and thorough instructor . Many thanks again and I will definitely be recommending you to friends
Fantastic experience: I was recommended XS Riding School by someone at the sportsbikeshop in Leeds, after a huge knock in confidence with some previous shouty instructors. Vicky and Simon gave me some confidence boosting lessons on a geared bike and I am SOO glad I came here. All of the instructors are friendly, down to earth and kind. The lessons encourage fun most of all, and improvements are given in a wonderful teaching style. I went from thinking I was not cut out for biking to riding confidently, having the best time on the roads loving life. I could not recommend this place highly enough, they tailor their teaching and give you time and honest patience, and do not upsell and force you into extra lessons if you dont need them. They were incredibly flexible with timings and fitted me in for lessons as soon as I needed. What a wonderful place, you all should be proud of the wholesome workplace environment you have created.
Fantastic experience: 9/11 - mod 1 lesson 16/11 - mod 1 lesson 18/11 - mod 1 pass 30/01 - mod 2 lesson 31/01 - mod 2 pass No messing about with these guys. Friendly but straight talking instructors teach you what you need to know get through. No unnecessary lessons, cost well under £1k to pass. Thanks to Vicky, Simon, Paula & Morris for your expert tuition!

Fantastic experience: So I did my CBT today and PASSED YAY.

Fantastic experience: When I do my test I was only experienced with moto x bikes and vicky taught me within 10 or 15 mins on how to be steady with the throttle and not just drop the. Clutch which I was really used to and above all that I was treated with nothing but respect and genuine caring this is a great place I would definitely recommend she also had one lad who was doing his 50 test and had no determination to pass and by the end of the test he didn’t want it to end vicky is great I highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Had my CBT test here with both Vicky's. Did a CBT 15 years ago and wanted to get back into it. Fantastic experience, learned new skills and had fun along the way. Would highly recommend this place. Theory test booked. Back for Mod 1 lessons when its done. Update# Went on to have Mod 1 and 2 lessons. Superb tuition again! Got the pleasure of meeting Maurice, John and Matt. Passed both Modules. New license in the post. Thankyou all for your help.
Thank you Dan for the lovely comments hope to see you back soon. UPDATE Well done passing your full motorcycle tests. It was a pleasure teaching you
Fantastic experience: Passed my CBT yesterday with Vicky. I loved it. Found it very fun and straight to the point about learning the bike. Will definitely be returning for my MOD 1.
Fantastic experience: After being in the final year of my 2nd CBT I decided to take my full A licence, I’m very nervous under pressure & don’t like tests. Vicky and her team of instructors put my nerves at ease right from the start! They gave me the best support, encouragement & training I could of wished for. I thoroughly enjoyed all of my lessons with XS needless to say I passed my mod1 & mod2 tests in less time than I thought. All the instructors are very professional and very nice people. Don’t hesitate to use this school for any of your motorcycle training, you can’t go wrong!
Thank you for the lovely comments hope you are enjoying the summer
Fantastic experience: Got referred to XS by a relative training. I passed my test back in 1980 & not been on a motorcycle for many years. Spoke to Vicky, who suggested a Back to Bike lesson to see how I felt and performed? Went out with John who put no pressure on me at all, many explanations on my skill and how to improve! Couldn’t recommend highly enough!
Glad we could help hope you are enjoying the new bike
Fantastic experience: Fantastic teachers don't rush you explain every thing in detail . So happy I did my cbt with them excellent all round
Hi Sue had technical issues with gmail but thank you so much for the lovely comments hope you are enjoyed the bike
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing team who run this motorcycle training school. Always happy to go above and beyond! Will be back again to do my third and final test
Thank you Rebecca look forward to see you back soon
Fantastic experience: After never even sitting on a motorcycle to passing my direct access, I can most definitely say that XS has brilliant staff. The teaching method and attitude towards its students is second to none. XS staff are professional and understanding of everyone's needs. I 100% would recommend this riding school to anyone.
Thank you Dale for your lovely review so glad the team helped you achieve your dreams and that you have now passed your test well done
Fantastic experience: I'd had my confidence knocked by another school, but not wanting to give in I spoke to and booked with XS. This was the best thing I ever did, these guys are so friendly and supportive, I'm happy to say I successfully completed my training in one visit. I will be using these lovely ladies for the rest of my learning when I'm ready to go for a licence. I highly recommend them.
Amanda so sorry for late reply but thank you so much for the lovely comments hope to see you back soon
Fantastic experience: Vicky an Instructor, great, patient, professional and personable. Took a total non-rider novice through cbt. Thank you.
Many thanks for your kind comments so glad we could help XSRTS
Fantastic experience: Great experience and great people. Couldn't recommend them more
Thank you Martin glad you enjoyed your day
Fantastic experience: Professional and easy going at the same time, so learning with them is not stressful, but productive. Done my CBT training with them, and loved it :) Very flexible and individual approach as well, so if one manoeuvre becomes easy for you, they'll focus on the other that you struggle with. And, if your progress is too slow to go on the road at the end of the day you'll be booked on another day with no extra cost! Hopefully I will be able to go for my direct access with them one day...
Thank you so much for your lovely review hope to see you back soon

Fantastic experience: Great instructors.
Great trainees It really helps when you are teachable
Fantastic experience: Excellent professional service.. gone from non rider to passing Direct access
Cheers Stephen. And great job passing
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend this riding school to anyone wanting to just do their CBT or go on to the bigger bikes, for an A2 or full licence. Friendly yet professional team, who make the experience of learning fun, yet set you up with the skills you need to ride for the rest of your life. They have a range of 50cc scooters, manual 125cc, and bikes suitable for the a2 or full licence. I have already reccomemend them to anyone who has asked me about training. They can so provide some of the gear, including helmets and gloves. They have a high success rate for learners who go on to pass, and there is such a lovely atmosphere among the learners and teachers during training, it really is fun. I did my training during July and August last year, failed my mod 1 first time, but they get you right back into it and I passed 2nd time. Then a pass first time on my mod 2 Highly recommended
Thank you very much for your brilliant recommendation. Glad you were happy with the training. We always try to make what is a stressful situation fun - we learn quicker that way.
Fantastic experience: Really good people with a high quality of tutoring! Had me passed in no time along with everyone else who took their tests at the same time as i did. Would recommend to anyone wanting to do the full bike test or even just a cbt
Thanks for the recommendation Lee. And well done on passing.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic training, adapted to the individual not one size fits all. All information delivered professionally with the right amount of humour to settle a person's nerves. Highly recommended them.
We always try to work to the experience of our trainees. Thanks for the recommendation and well done on passing
