I subscribe to four, but I pick up some of the others when I see something that catches my eye. I get American Iron, American Baggers, Hot Bike Baggers, and Easyriders. I like the tech articles, and bike layouts, but I also like looking at new products. Another thing I do is search ebay. I buy huge lots of old harley mags. You can get them for cheap, and they have a lot of good info... I keep them all, and I recently had to buy a bookself to store them all... the wife was tired of the piles of magazines in the "Library", LOL.... Also, I get as many free parts cataloga as I can. I swear, I am a little obsessed, LOL...

How about a subscription to HD Forums??
Lots of good reading, lots of good tech tips, awesome pics of bikes built by real people,and always the humor ofinteresting people making stupid mistakes.
Did I mention it is updated by the minute, and the subscription fee is FREE?
