Event Details

Basic motorcycle maintenance is essential to keep your machine in top top condition, safe and to reduce the possibility of being stranded. It pays to know your way around your motorcycle, even just the weekly / daily basics.

We are delighted to offer basic general motorcycle maintenance workshops, where we will cover the basics with the guidance of our master technician Tommy.

The evening will consist of a brief intro into the pros of checking your motorcycle regularly, followed by a 30 minute, 1 to one session with each customer with their motorcycle on the bench finished off by a question and answer session.

Due to the nature of this workshop numbers are limited to 4 per session to ensure that everyone gets the most out of it.

Things covered in the Basic General Maintenance workshop includes:

Lights and Electrics
Wheels and Tyres
Brakes
Fluids
Chains and Drive Belts
Chassis
Cleaning

For further information and to book please click here (will open in a new page)

Terms and Conditions:

As spaces for each course are limited to 4 people, maintenance class payments are non-refundable.

It may be possible to change the date of your workshop, or for someone else to take your place given at least 7 days notice before the date of the class.

In the event that you cannot bring your own motorcycle, we will substitute it for one of our motorcycles. However please give us as much notice as possible.

Please arrive with your motorcycle at 5.30pm to get checked in. If you don’t have a motorcycle and still want to attend, we can provide a motorcycle for you to work on for the course.

The course will start from 6pm, finishing at 8.30pm (based on a full workshop of 4 people). If you arrive late you may be refused entry due to disruption to the other attendees.

Bring your glasses or lenses if you need them for close up work.

Please advise us of any medical conditions which we should be aware of in a workshop environment; and bring any medication you may need (eg inhaler).

If your motorcycle is from a manufacturer that we don’t service in our workshop, we will provide a replacement Yamaha or Suzuki 125cc machine for the duration of the workshop.

19aug11:00 am5:00 pmRider Training Taster Session August 2018 - Fully booked

Event Details

Rider training taster session available in our indoor training yard, on Sunday 19 August 2018 (booking essential).

Ever fancied the thought of riding a scooter or motorcycle, but not sure if it’s for you?

Then come along to our Taster session day and take advantage of our indoor training yard for a taster session, where you will have fun and learn the basics on one of our Suzuki 125cc motorcycles, regardless of the weather outside.

The sessions will each last 90 minutes starting at 11am, 12.30pm, 2pm and 3.30pm.

Bring a friend as there will be 2 spaces available per session. The price is £25.00 per person, and if you book your Compulsory Basic Training course with us following your taster session on the day you will receive that £25.00 off the price of the CBT!

We will provide protective clothing, gloves and a helmet. You will need to wear a pair of sturdy boots (but no steel toe caps).

Please arrive 15 minutes before your time slot to get checked in.

What’s required?
A Full or provisional car photo-card licence is required (if you have the old paper style licence please also bring photographic ID) and a sense of adventure and fun.

Hot refreshments will be available throughout.

To book your taster session, contact the rider training team on 0131 478 6661 option 4 or please email ridertraining@saltiremotorcycles.com.

The Compulsory Basic Training (CBT) is the first step to getting you on the road and requires no previous experience.

At Saltire we will provide you with a bike (Suzuki Van Van RV125 or automatic scooter) and any clothing you need to borrow, except boots. Once you have completed your CBT, you will qualify for a discount in our clothing department, so you can start building up your own bike kit.

Prices are as follows:

CBT Monday-Friday – £160

CBT Weekends – £175

The CBT has a curriculum set by the Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) and was introduced in 1990 with the aim of increasing skills for learner motorcyclists and improving road safety. It is made up of five different elements, some in the classroom, some in the training yard and lastly out on the road.

Saltire Instructors will only take you out onto the public highway once they feel that you are confident handling a motorcycle, and safe to do so. Traditionally, the CBT course is one full day, but can continue for another half day or so, depending on how individual students get on (or if the weather causes problems!)

Learners will be expected to use the roads safely and legally, so we highly recommend that provisional licence holders read The Highway Code before undertaking a CBT. But remember, The Highway Code is for life, not just for learners!

Buy The Official Highway Code here.

If you have any questions, please email ridertraining@saltiremotorcycles.com or call on 0131 478 6661 option 4.
