CKS Private Intermediate Lesson
Private lessons are available in 2 hour blocks: $180 per lesson.
2 Hour Intermediate Course
The CKS Private Intermediate Lesson is often used by individuals who have attended the Motorcycle Safety Foundation & NYS Motorcycle class, called the Basic Rider Course, but did not fulfill the requirements to receive their Road Test waiver. That individual may choose to enroll in a private lesson before they return for their second attempt at the Skill Evaluation. Also many new riders elect to have a private lesson on their own motorcycle after successfully completing the course. Some like to use their 2 hours to enjoy a street ride with their instructors. Others may choose to take a NY State Road Test Prep course and/or use our Escort Service to the Road Test. With the Escort Service, we provide a small Motorcycle to use on the test and a NYS motorcycle licensed driver to go with you.
