Most have cheap enough subscriptions that you can try them for a year and then drop the ones you don't like.

I've subscribed to almost all the mags listed in this thread and eventually dropped them when I tire of them.

The one I currently subscribe to that's not listed is "Bike". It's an import from UK and for some reason I find it more entertaining than most.

A lot of it has to do with what type motorcycles interest you and what you enjoy doing with them.

Check 'em out and have fun!

I just read the article about the Honda 700 too. Not sure if the last line was a compliment to the bike or not;

'It is the motorcycling equivalent of a glass of warm milk and a nap'.

Ha ha, yeah, it's not exactly what I woiuld call a glowing endorsement.


Unless you really are wanting a warm glass of milk and a nap.

When they introduced that bike I thought it would be a good bike for an octogenarian.

It's probably a bike I should have looked at considering my relative inexperience but I'm SO glad I got the FJR. I don't use the feejers power on a regular basis but when I need it, I sure like having it. That 700 would have gotten old very fast I think.

Yeah, but at that price? That's pretty expensive for what it is. I remember my NT650 wasn't so peppy, and I can't imagine adding bags & plastic.

And like someone said "if you want something slow with poor handling, get a car... at least you'll be warm & dry"

 
...MCN... Big Sky mentioned "low Production Values" but I'm not sure I understand what that means.
it means it's not a slick-paged mag funded by industry advertisers. it's funded solely by subscriptions and doesn't accept ads. that means it's color-on-heavy-weight-paper instead of on clay-coated slick stock.

and, while most of the slick mags are often only fit to wipe your ass, their slick nature makes then unfit for even that purpose.

As soon as I saw the cover, I realized what "low production value" meant!
