What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

CBT training is where many riders begin with RTS Motorcycle School on Ballinderry Road in Lisburn, with several then progressing onto direct access courses and coming away with a full CAT A licence through the same team. Instructors named across accounts include Frank, Damien, Greg and Neville, and patience combined with a calm, encouraging manner is a point that comes up often, particularly for those starting out with no prior riding experience or returning to bikes after a long gap.

Reviewers recall feeling nervous beforehand and being put at ease through unhurried, step-by-step lessons that covered basic bike control before progressing to riding on the road. Booking sessions is described as straightforward, and staff are frequently credited with generous, above-and-beyond support, including small personal touches such as help getting to public transport afterwards.

The path from CBT through to the Mod 2 test and a full licence is mentioned repeatedly, with some completing that whole journey within a few months. Warmth and helpfulness are attributed broadly across the instructing team rather than to any single person, and the depth of experience among staff is noted as reassuring for complete beginners. Weekday sessions run from 9am, with Saturday training available until 1pm for those needing weekend flexibility.

I recently completed my CBT renewal with these guys, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. A special mention has to go to Neville, who was absolutely fantastic throughout the day. From start to finish he was incredibly patient, professional, kind, and had a great sense of humour, which made the whole experience enjoyable and helped settle any nerves. There was absolutely no pressure from him at any point—if I felt any pressure, it was entirely my own! A big thank you as well for fitting me in earlier than originally planned after a cancellation came up. That was really appreciated and worked out perfectly for me. Having spent so much time riding on the road, I'd become surprisingly rusty with the slow-speed manoeuvres and the cone/slalom exercises. Neville took the time to help me rebuild my confidence and reminded me of the techniques without ever making me feel rushed or uncomfortable. It was exactly the refresher I needed. The training was well organised, relaxed, and completely hassle-free—no fuss, no stress, just great instruction from genuinely lovely people. I'd happily recommend them to anyone looking to do their CBT or a renewal, and I wouldn't hesitate to come back again in the future. Thanks again to Neville and the team for a brilliant day!

I had a really good experience with this CBT training centre. Safety was clearly a top priority, and they made sure I felt confident with the basic manoeuvres before moving on. Frank was a gentleman—easy to deal with and booking over the phone was simple and quick. He even gave me a lift to the bus station afterwards, which was a very kind gesture. Highly recommend.

I recently completed my CBT training with RTS Motorcycles, and I had a great experience from start to finish. The instructor was highly professional, patient, and very supportive throughout the entire session. They explained everything clearly, from the basics of bike control to on-road riding, making sure I understood each step properly. I never felt rushed, and the instructor made sure I was comfortable and confident before moving forward. What really stood out was their calm and encouraging approach, which helped me build confidence while riding. The training was well-structured and focused strongly on safety, which I really appreciated. Thanks to their guidance, I successfully completed my CBT and feel much more confident on the road now. Highly recommend RTS Motorcycles to anyone looking for quality training
