I subscribed to Motorcyclist for three decades, but they have certainly gone downhill lately. I subscribe to Motorcycle Consumer News, but they are expensive. Their tests of products is great. But they test too many cruisers. I'll pick up a copy of Sport Rider at the supermarket if it has some tests that I'm interested in.

I subscribe to Motorcyclist, Sportrider, and Roadracing World, buy FastBikes, Performance Bikes, and Roadracer X when I find a good issue.

I like Fast Bikes, but rarely buy one, too expensive, i subscribe to Motor Cyclist and Sport Rider because i got them both for $7 a year...i have a huge collection of bike mags, some probably back to 93 or so

If I remember correctly.... SR and Motorcyclist are sister publications. They've had to substantially cut budget and staff, so I guess they are sharing media and info now????

For me, SR fulfills my everyday need to quell boredom.... but if I am looking for something with some more substance, PB is easily picked up at Barnes & Noble. It is a little expensive tho.
