Do I need my own motorcycle to take the ERS Advanced Riding Course?
Do You Need Your Own Motorcycle for the Enhanced Rider Scheme at RMT Motorcycle Training?
Tailoring the ERS to Your Needs
At RMT Motorcycle Training, we aim to accommodate the varied needs of our riders in the Enhanced Rider Scheme (ERS).
Understanding that not all participants may own a motorcycle, we offer flexible options to ensure everyone can benefit from advanced training, regardless of their equipment status.
Using Your Own Motorcycle for the ERS
Benefits of Using Your Own Bike
- Familiarity and Comfort: Training on your own motorcycle is highly recommended because it allows you to hone your skills on a bike that you are accustomed to and comfortable riding. This familiarity can accelerate your learning process and enhance the effectiveness of the training.
- Skill Relevance: Using your own bike ensures that the skills you develop are directly applicable to your regular riding experiences, making the training more relevant and beneficial.
Options for Those Without a Motorcycle
Motorcycle Hire Availability
- Hire Options: For those who do not own a motorcycle or choose not to use theirs, you can hire a motorcycle from RMT Motorcycle Training. This ensures that all participants have access to suitable bikes for the duration of the course.
- Additional Charges: There is an additional charge for hiring a motorcycle from us. This fee covers the use of the bike and ensures that it is prepared and maintained to the highest standards for your training sessions.
Why Might You Consider Hiring a Motorcycle?
Flexibility and Convenience
- Try Different Models: Hiring a motorcycle provides the opportunity to train on a different model, which can be beneficial if you are considering changing your bike or want to experience a different bike before making a purchase.
- Ease of Access: For those travelling to take the course, hiring a bike can be more convenient than transporting your own, especially if you live far from the training location.
Cost Considerations
- Cost-Effective for Short-Term Needs: If you are new to motorcycling and not ready to invest in a bike, hiring one for the duration of the course can be a cost-effective solution. It allows you to focus on learning without the upfront cost of purchasing a motorcycle.
Training Effectiveness with Hired Motorcycles
High Standards of Training Bikes
- Well-Maintained Bikes: All hired motorcycles are kept in excellent condition, ensuring reliability and safety during your training sessions. This maintenance level helps simulate an optimal learning environment similar to training on your own bike.
- Adaptation Skills: Training on a hired bike can also enhance your adaptability as a rider, a valuable skill that improves your ability to handle various motorcycles and conditions.
