Gidday All,

Saw a post the other day about what Bike mags the Sprotbikers like to read got me wondering what magazines the Cruiserbike riders here read?

My fav's are:
Live to Ride
Ozbiker
KiwiRider -cruiser section
Easy Rider -only because I received a subcription as a Xmas present from my Sister n law (She arranged it without ever reading one) bloody good as its full of topless chicks and My wife can't do anything about it, pisses her off when I open up the centerfold.

Cheers

O1

live to ride
heavy duty [aussie bike mag]
twin eagles when i can find a second hand copy
easy riders

i only read when i can afford it or find them second hand. found a bunch of second hand easyriders once, old ones, that still had the dave mann paintings in the middle! :rockon: i prefer bikes without chicks draped all over them, so since they are hard to find, i dont generally bother.

I had all the first Easyrider mags when they came out in the early '70's...then it was banned in NZ.So in 1980 I had a subscription - I had the ''lost'' years.Gave them all away years ago.

Im more into the european custom scene & mags like the pommy AWOL & BSH & Custom Bike etc
I much prefer their way of innovative hands on customising of euro,jap & brit bikes to the yank way of throwing huge $$$ at a harley or harley clone & calling it a custom

Most of the same types of mags the others buy - though the only regular one now is BRM.
Lost my collection of early (1970's - 1980's) in a big fire at the freezing works in the 80's:crybaby: :crybaby: :mad:

I had them all stored ina spare locker - dozens of 'em!:bye:

does anyone know how many issues of "in the wind" were published? it was a side magazine by easyriders back in the day, and featured photos only, no articles.
i scored a stack yesterday of in the wind, easyriders, live to ride, ironhorse and a coupla others for $6...likely got around $200 worth of books there :gob:

$6 for the lot - good deal. I like to read through the old mags.

In the Wind is still published:

Check out these!

Even though I ride a sports bike I still love reading about all sorts of bikes and these mags are bloody brilliant - more content, less style.

I like the one that featured Marge Simpson as "Cycle Slut of the Month"

Homer is pleasantly surprised to find his picture of Hell's Satans
% in "Outlaw Biker" magazine. Marge is also surprised, but by a
% different photo -- one of her in a nightgown, sound asleep. She's
% been named "Cycle Slut of the Month," but that doesn't impress her.

Marge: You took a picture of me when I was asleep?
Homer: If you'd been awake you would have said, "no." You can
see the bind I was in.
Marge: [reading from the magazine] Her turn-ons include thievery
and liquor. Her turns-offs include underpants,
pedestrians, and justice -- [disgusted] Ohhh.
-- "Take My Wife, Sleaze"

I subscribed to Motorcycle Cruiser mag about a year back. Comes out every second month and is very good value for money (about $45 for the year) if you subscribe from the web site.

http://www.motorcyclecruiser.com/

Quality mag with heaps of stuff on metric cruisers. Well worth a read.
