What mags do you read.
and please post their web site if possible.
I am looking for some new reading material and I do not want
the same old harley mags.
I an looking for something that does not cater to the
up and coming yuppy biker.
Maybe a mag from england that I can get shipped here to the US.
any ideas??

Two: Road Runner and Motorcycle Escapes.
The Road Runner magazine was started ten years (or so) ago by a couple from Austria that moved to North Carolina to ride America's roads. I think they were both studies of American history and just wanted to be here. The husband "Christian" was killed last year (Oct'05) in a motorcicle accident when he encountered a truck from nowhere. The wife, Christie (i think) continues the publication and has wonderful stories from experienced staff writers of their long distance rides that make me wish I was retired with much money. Check 'em out. They don't seem to be "up & coming yuppie" rags.

Triumph, it's how I live and what I ride.

Motorcyclist Magazine was the one who pizzed off the helmet manufacturers in 2005 by actually testing helmets. They also check out Triumphs quite often. A bit quirky but the best of the general interest motorcycle mags.
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

I get two mags. Cycle World and Motorcyclist. Of those two Motorcyclist is the best by far.

I picked up a few British motorcycle magazines while I was in
England a couple of months ago. I found that they are more sport bike oriented that cruiser oriented.
You might try Ride and SuperBike.

(not a half bad accessary either)
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams
