Thought I might give it a year and see what it has to offer.

I just want a bagger magazine that well talks about touring. I want traveling tips, spots to visit, rides to take, etc. not one about over the top customized ones.

+ 1 on that and I wouldn't mind some tech tips for performance and accessory reviews for touring bikes. But all I have seen is the over the top gawdy custom bikes they feature.

Don't own a Bagger, Don't want to own a Bagger, No need for a magazine about Baggers!

I get American Bagger. For the most part I like it but the bikes are all looking the same lately and I agree about the front tire, it's ugly. I think they could do more with trips and rallies but what the hell, it beats reading the shampoo bottle.

I've been getting American Iron for a few years and like the tech stuff, but could do with fewer extreme customs. I tried American Bagger, but too many ads and not enough tech. I'm likely gonna try American Bagger - hoping that I get the bagger stuff and the tech stuff.....and I'll likely drop the other two.

I agree with damo. I'd like a dresser mag based on roads, places and actual scooter trips.

I just got an email offer and was going to subscribe, but it doesn't sound like my thing. I'd prefer something with a little more how-to info, and the current trend of stretched bags and large diameter front wheels is getting a little ridiculous.
