What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Motorcycle training in Birmingham is delivered by O.R.M.T, and feedback from learners consistently highlights the calibre of instruction. Several buyers describe passing their CBT, MOD1 and MOD2 tests first time, crediting the patience and clarity of named instructors including Jay, Troy, Jake, Pete, Nick and Warwick. An aspect raised across a number of reviews is how instructors break down every detail, focus on small mistakes before they become habits, and keep confidence high throughout the day.

A number of reviews mention the condition of the bikes, describing them as new and properly serviced, alongside pricing seen as fair compared with other schools that drag out training and let costs mount. The administrative side, such as booking tests, is handled by the team, which learners find helpful. Many note the friendly, lively atmosphere and the way teaching is adapted to individual circumstances, including one learner who trained while pregnant. The Redditch and Perry Bar sites are both referenced positively, and customers frequently say they intend to return for larger bike training after completing their initial course.

Completed my CBT, MOD1 & 2 training with ORMT and would definitely recommend them. Jason, Troy, Jake and Pete were brilliant instructors, really patient, easy to get along with and made the whole process enjoyable. Great training school for anyone looking to get into bikes.

100% recommend O.R.M.T I completed my CBT locally, but unfortunately didn’t have the best experience, which really knocked my confidence. After meeting Jake and the team at ORMT Motorcycle Training while out riding, I decided to get in touch to complete my full licence—and I’m so glad I did. I was coached by Jake and from the very beginning, made me feel supported and genuinely believed in me. His coaching completely rebuilt my confidence and made a huge difference to my riding. The whole team at ORMT are incredibly friendly and make you feel like part of a family. Thanks to them, I now have my full licence, and I couldn’t be more grateful. I’d highly recommend ORMT Motorcycle Training to anyone looking to start or progress their riding journey.🌟💗🏍

Many thanks to all at ORMT for the excellent support and tuition for Caitlin. Passed her A1 MOD2 today. Will be back for larger bike training soon

I had a truly excellent day learning to ride a motorbike with Jay. His patience and friendliness stood out—he’d calmly explain things as many times as I needed. I felt fully supported and gained a lot of confidence. The only minor improvement would be fresher riding gear, but honestly, that didn’t overshadow the top-notch instruction. I’d highly recommend them to anyone learning to ride!

I couldn't recommend ORMT more. I had my CBT today, coached by Jay and Troy, who were both incredible, patient and fair whilst also making the day really enjoyable. Firm when necessary, with banter at every turn. I am looking forward to going back to see them when I do my Mod1 and Mod2. Well done Gents, and thank you for a really great day! A genuine credit to the company.

Came from Edinburgh to do CBT at ORMT with Jay and Troy. Wonderful experience. They are extremely patient and professional. Clear instructions and route planning. I struggled a bit on road but we ended up getting everything together. Strongly recommend CBT here, definitely worth the time to fly from Scotland and fly back the same day. 👍👍👍👍👍👍 I’d even love to stay for a week and do DAS here too in the future.
