Australian Road Rider, for the touring aspects but I feel its gone off a bit so I find me having a browse and then usually putting it back on the shelf.

I haven't found anything that grabs me. I like product reviews and handy info.

Oh wait that's the FZ6 forum it seems to give me the fix I need. LOL

Yes i agree, i read Australian Road Rider...and just recently, i have noticed that it's not quite as a decent read as it was about a year ago...

Maybe we should have a product reviews thread in the Aussie section of this forum...especially as we seem to have very different choices for gear, as opposed to our American & European forum friends....

Hmmmm....

I definately agree on the reviews, but also good to keep in mind that some of the mags seem to have their 'downs' and their ups when the quality of their work is great, and then suddenly terrible.
I mean I quite like Rapid its generally a reasonable read (that being said I'm young and don't pay for it!) but a few times its had successive releases of total garbage. Toilet paper worthy. The last few I've had it have been an improvement though.

I read Rapid Bikes...it's ok, just seems to lack a wealth of content...

True one of the highlights for me is looking at peoples bikes that have pictures sent in.
They also occasionally reveiw a bike I'm interested in too, or do comparisons.
That being said I don't generally read it cover to cover.
