A nice high quality glossy magazine from 1986, covering a range of of notable motorcycles, modern and historical, even a bicycle! It seems to have been shortlived, this is Volume 1 Number 2 and is the only issue appearing online in 2026. I don't recognize any of the staff names. R.I.P.

Any mention of the original Vmax and my mind automatically goes to drag racer Jay Gleason setting records on the bike for Cycle World magazine. Sad to see he had passed.

I remember him attending a promo at a local Yamaha dealer where he performed Vmax burnouts for the crowd.

I am almost certain I bought a subscription to that magazine after I bought a copy at a news stand. I then got a letter stating the publication was ceasing and instead they would be sending me bicycle magazines instead; or I could write back and ask for a refund. After I received one copy of the bicycle magazine I wrote them, cancelled my subscription and got a refund.
