Intermediate Course

  • Improve Your Skills
  • Pass the Test
  • Earn Your Endorsement

The Intermediate Course is an approved endorsement course for riders 21 and older.

Students must be able to already operate a motorcycle and to smoothly get underway, turn, shift and stop. This one-day course includes on-bike training and classroom instruction.

The course builds basic street-riding skills and strategies. The on-bike training provides 4 hours of practice in low-speed balance and control, emergency braking, countersteering, cornering and swerving. The on-bike training is done in-person, on-site. Training motorcycles 125-250cc and helmets are provided.

Students can complete the classroom portion online at home, or in-person, on site. The classroom prepares students for the on-bike training and for street riding. Students who choose online classroom complete Chapters 1 and 2 (riding gear and motorcycle controls) before the on-bike training session. Students who choose in-person classroom attend 4 hours of classroom on-site before the on-bike training session.

Please note: Riding gear is required for all riding activities. Also, see Completion & Eligibility Requirements.

The Oregon Department of Transportation may provide a $25 refund to Oregon residents participating in the DHS-SNAP program who register for a Team Oregon Basic or Intermediate Course. SNAP participants apply for the refund when they register, and are required to show their SNAP card to the instructor.
