Title: Motorcyclist Magazine Post by: Blackout on July 02, 2019, 05:56:30 PM This almost belongs in the In Memoriam thread
I lost interest in the magazine about the time they published the best way to make espresso a months back. Title: Re: Motorcyclist Magazine Post by: Mhanis on July 03, 2019, 02:13:28 AM I am still subscribed, because I have been for decades, but I don't do much more than skim through it anymore. My latest issue arrived late last week and I haven't even opened it yet. Sadly, after 30 years + I will not be renewing.
It is more a lifestyle magazine than a motorcycle rag anymore. Mark Title: Re: Motorcyclist Magazine Post by: Blackout on July 03, 2019, 04:54:43 AM I was notified yesterday that they are out of business and Cycle World is fulfilling the remainder of their subscriptions.
Title: Re: Motorcyclist Magazine Post by: Charlie98 on July 03, 2019, 06:07:03 AM I gave up on motorcycle magazines years ago. Much like firearms magazines... they simply rehashed the same subjects over and over.

At least they've got Kevin Cameron, if you're into the tech. He's the only reason I go there. Title: Re: Motorcyclist Magazine Post by: ducpainter on July 03, 2019, 10:56:18 AM At least they've got Kevin Cameron, if you're into the tech. Kevin is smart. I knew him before he got famous.He's the only reason I go there. He used to be on this coast working as a service manager at another shop back when I worked in the Boston area in moto shops. He new everything about Kawasaki triples, and most stuff in general. We turned my S2 into a light switch. :P Title: Re: Motorcyclist Magazine Post by: krolik on July 07, 2019, 07:05:59 PM The July/August issue is the last, switching to online only.
