Brit Mag never short on laffs, great pics and interesting, substantive articles. Definitely not PC, rude, literate humor is the norm. Not a candy rag that just prints the publicity from the MC corporations either. Hands out criticism equally w/just praise. Sport bike centric, faired & unfaired, other bikes are given articles but they aren't the focus here. With that said, they try to convey the feeling of riding and living w/all bikes. Always have one or more articles about interesting travel or bike event, so if you don't have the time or resources you can at least read about it. Loads of good, critical gear reviews. Well put together and good looking. Not cheap, but worth it.

After you get a load of Bike the USA magazines will read like advertising slicks. It is the real deal for riding enthusiasts, written by riders for riders. They do excellent equipment and bike reviews, but the best articles are about the local heroes playing motorcycle in England and the continent. These guys aren't trying to get a job on a high paying car magazine, they are telling their friends, and you are privileged to be among them if you are a reader, about what's happening on the scene. The language is raw and so are the opinions. It is unpretentious British "working class" writing about a "working class" experience. It is the best general motorcycle riding magazine for the money, even though it costs two to three times more than American magazines. These guys are real, not a lot of posers, and they know what they're talking about.

WHY ISN'T THIS MAG ON KINDLE? IT SEEMS THAT NONE OF MY FAVORITES, EX. TOP GEAR ARE ON THE KINDLE. BIKE IS A GREAT MAGAZINE. BETTER THAN A LOT OF THE OTHER CRAP YOU FIND OUT THERE!

In December 2007 my brother purchased a gift subscription for this magazine for me. I filled in and send off the activation code required and have received nothing a year later! I have emailed and telephoned Bauer Media trading as greatmagazines.co.uk and they have simply refused to do anything, saying "You must provide evidence of the address you sent it to etc." DO NOT BUY THIS!
