In our 71 st year, MOTORCYCLIST makes a very significant change which will be great news to the motorcycle enthusiast. Starting with our July issue, MOTORCYCLIST is 100% street in editorial content. When we started out in 1912 there were only street bikes. The streets were not always paved, but the bikes were all the same. In the 1970's, dirt bikes became a very important part of the motorcycling world, and we responded with more editoria' space for dirt bikes. MOTORCYCLIST is the first of the general-interest motorcycle publications to realize that this now very specialized marketplace demaAds very targeted editorial. Our plan is simple: In December 1982 we launched DIRT RIDER magazine to cover dirt bikes, and in July 1983 MOTORCYCLIST becomes the largest-circulation all-street publication in the country. We now serve the motorcycle enthusiast with two excellent, well-targeted magazines. No matter what your interest, we talk to you with two great books.
