I went up to spearfish and saws the shop yesterday- met the tech guy and saw their setup... Nice place and we should see some cool buildups and articles come out of there.

There certainly isn't a shortage of cool bikes/ baggers in the black hills (there is mine, of course)

 

Found 1st issue at B&N at Shellville,Ga. Finally! Mike

 

I just pulled my first issie out of the mail box. They actually sent it priority mail. Once I kick back and relax a bit, I'll give it a hard look. Regardless of what the articles are etc., they can only hope to appeal to the masses. They'll always be folks complaining that the tech is way above their heads and cannot be understood and the other way around or other issues. We'll see how they do. I've seen some mags that you pay $7 and $8 for that are 2 inches thick and the first hundred pages are all ads and nothing more. Granted ads do pay for the publication and printing which are not cheap by any stretch but hell I'd love to be able to at least read a bit lol. These particular mags were not bike related though.

Anywho... they've got a great concept and I hope it works for them. Personally, I think we'll see a trend begin to a shfit towards custom baggers. Hotrod baggers and otherwise. Dealer told me a few months ago they can't keep baggers in general on the floor as opposed to years ago, the Fatboys and Heritage models were sold before they hit the floor and baggers sat and collected dust. Now at least in a couple of dealerships I know of, baggers don't sit long and the Fatboys and Heritage line collect dust for a while.

GILBYS BAGSTER,

I give the guy credit for some thought about how he wanted this to look. Do not like the colors and it needs some kind of small wind deflector up front, but other than that, I like its overall looks and style. Now lets see if he can put ina weeks worth of500 mile days riding his "bagger".

Hey CWILKS. You say us guy's must be starving for scooter stuff but look who picked up the 1st issue ( YOU )[:'(][:'(]

Yep, gotta at least check it out but I guarantee you it won't happen again Enjoy

 

So far I have read the first 15 pages and so far I'm not impressed. I'll continue to read 'til I reach the back cover before giving my real opinion.
My favorite M/C rag is still AMERICAN RIDER.

Anyone that's ready to throw the 1st issue away, I'll take it.

No place around here has it, and I'm looking for it.

PM or Email me and we'll work something out.

I picked up a copy at B&N this evening. I liked it, nothing but baggers...gotta love it
