Default Harley Mags

I saw the post from American Cycle Magazine and thought I would ask the Forum for their opinions of what they thought were the best magazines for someone who owns a Harley. Not one about choppers, metrics, etc. I bought my first Harley a couple of months ago and I wanted to get a subscription or two but didn’t know what to get.
Thanks
Jeff

American Iron, Easyriders andThe Horse Backstreet Choppers is good also.
Here is a few links to check them out:
http://www.thehorsemag.com/
http://www.aimag.com/index.php
http://www.easyriders.com/

I just picked up a copy of American Rider and that one seemed informative but pretty short.

I'd rather ride than read and you can't do both at the same time anyway.

I like Hot Rod Biker, Bike Works, and American Iron. But I'm still checking others to see if they might be better. So far I like those best.

American Iron and Hot Bike. Occassionally I'll pick up a rice rag if they happen to have a cruiser article in there.

For my truck, I pick up Trukin' every month.
