Not got the 4th issue yet but have other 3, shops all stocked first couple of issues but not so easy to get now. Great mag though
This months Classic Motorcycle Mechanics has 4 pages on Vin Jefferies RD500 special - nice. Also got ome artcles on the petrol additives issues on repairing rusty tanks.

I bought issue 3 and enjoyed it so much I contacted them to buy issues 1 and 2. They could only supply issue 2 as they were out of 1s. Norbo they are done by MCN.

Emailed again,no reply yet.Do they have issue 1? Managed to get issues 3 and 4 from the Magazine Man.He told me mag is going monthly next year. I spoke to them yesterday and ordered issues 1 and 2, The company I work for uses Bauer media to advertise in ( not bike related) and so I asked our contact to do some digging, it appears that the copies of issue 1 are rapidly going and to use Sally's words "Will become collectible" They only printed a relatively small amount of copies in comparison to a normal circulation magazine and on a quarterley basis to "test" the market. As someone else said earlier it is going to become a monthly mag from March 2011 with the next issue due out in Jan. And despite threatening to cut our advertising budget with them I still had to bloody pay for my back issues  ;D |
