Guest Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 (edited) Which is your favourite bike magazine? I haven't included MCN cos' thats weekly, or What Bike - as thats quarterly.I did try to put up other choices, but theres a limit on the Polls, so I just put up what I perceived as the main titles...

Guest Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Here's some mind-numbing stats for you - The circulation figures for the last 6 months:Bike 90,013 SuperBike 50,023Ride 49,764Two 37,445Performance Burks 34,120Fast Bikes 30,227I tend to read most of the publications every month, including MCN. Costs me a small fortune I stopped buying PB a long time ago though - used to be great, but has gone badly downhill of late.I also don't think Bike is on top form lately - they keep coming up with these daft "top gear"ish ideas - I'm more interested in the bikes themselves than daft antics.Ride is extremely good - tends to have the best product tests, and the best road tests - and usefully, good 2nd hand buy guides...Two seems a bit pooie.. don't usually get that.. And FastBikes and SuperBikes have suprised me over the last few months -> they are well known for their pictures of girlies in the niff... but have had some really informative articles too... Then of course, you've got BackDoor Heroes... Ummmm right.... well...least said the better eh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nigelf Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 BSH for me... not just for the power rangers type loads of good info. All the rest seem to be just for sports bike riders.... Nigel Fenton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 BSH for me... not just for the power rangers type loads of good info. All the rest seem to be just for sports bike riders.... Nigel Fenton I would agree with you as regards FastBikes & SuperBike Nigel,but Ride, Two and Bike regularly cover everything you could imagine -cruisers, tourers, dirtbikes, first-bikes... you name it... Try a copy of Ride, I doubt you'd be disappointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest markchris Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 I used to buy them all at one time,do buy Superbike a fair bit, but have jus subscribed to Motorcycle sport and leisure, which makes a change from just the latest sportsbikes with interesting articles such as touring abroad, real world road tests (Not just track based like a lot of them).

rennie Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 i voted for ride, don't buy mags very often now though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicane Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Motorcycle Sport and Leisure is my must read cos its the only one not wetting themselves over the latest 'rev the nuts off it', penile extension, pocket rocket, every fking month YAAWWNNNNNZZZZZZZ. I like sports bikes and given a large enough wallet I'd have one (prob a gixxer thou) but they way most bike mags go on you'd think there was feckall else on 2 wheels.
