Standard or Complete — which one should I choose?
Choose Standard if you want the full beginner foundation and you are not sure yet whether you want guided street riding right away.
Choose Complete if you want a confidence-building introduction to real traffic from the start, plus more road-test-focused coaching built into the program.
If you are unsure, start with Standard and add the traffic training later for the same $375 price.
What type of bikes can I try?
The Victoria training fleet includes over 20 motorcycles from 5 different styles, so riders can discover what feels right before buying a bike of their own.
