Summary: hamburger helper
Comment: Motorcyclist is a mainstay in the motorcycle magazine world, a place where cycle novices like this reviewer can begin to get a monthly diet of news, mechanics, advertisements, reviews, and cycle talk.
The format is busy, with very narrow margins. Think the opposite of those luxury goods magazines that seem bent on calming your mind. MOTORCYCLIST wants to rev it up, or better yet, place it in a helmet and roughly equidistant between the two ends of a handlebar.
The magazine pays fair attention to racing and racing cycles, then moves on to street bikes and eventually to the cruisers that most interest this middle-aged fat boy of a reviewer. The current issue in front of me has an Asian touch, with a series of articles headlined provocatively as 'Korean bikes: do they suck?' and an article entitled 'Riding the Ho Chi Minh Trail.'
'Makes one recall thirty years ago, when we couldn't imagine that a company named Honda could actually squeak out a running car.
Motorcyclists in this country, where riding a bike is a choice rather than a transportation necessity, tend to be passionate about their ride. So expect some flaming in the letters and reviews sections.
MOTORCYCLIST is a staple: the literary Hamburger Helper of a cyclist's regular reading.

Summary: What a hassel !
Comment: Bought a renewal for my motorcycle magazine. They said they would extend my current subscription. Then I recieved a notice for my new subctription.
I phoned the company and explained that I wanted the renewal at the end of my current subscription. I have not recieved any issues at all.

Summary: A Must Have Mag
Comment: Paparider reads this Mag cover to cover every month (then I do). Then they sit around in the bathroom for "lite" reading till I get weary of them and file them away. A must have read for all bike enthusisits.

Summary: Not my favorite, but not bad
Comment: I like this mag. It's not the best if you're looking at Cruisers. Every month it seems like they throw in a few cruiser pics as an afterthought. This is clearly a sport/touring mag. They do run some interesting tech articles, like how tires are made, and they go into depth on bike specs. Go buy one and you'll know if you like it. I won't be renewing my subscription, but I'll be looking at it in the supermarket every month.
Happy reading!

Summary: For those with eclectic interests.
Comment: Good technical articles. One of the better cycle mags out there for the rider who is dreaming about the next bike, or the wannabee just dreaming. A little light on focus, but what is there (and that's a fair amount) goes into appropriate depth to be useful. Not a picture, glamour or scene mag, rather a serious effort on bikes. It's just hard to predict whether this is the issue that will feature cruisers, sport-tourers, or crotch-rockets, etc., etc. Otherwise well put together.
