    70's Cycle Worlds

    Anyone have any Cycle Worlds or Cycle magazines from the 1970s they'd like to sell?
    1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

    2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.

      Interesting. I'll definitely have a look. But I'll still pay for any hard copies.

        Check eBay, if it's for sale you'll probably find it there
        1980 Yamaha XS1100G (Current bike)
        1982 GS450txz (former bike)
        LONG list of previous bikes not listed here.

        I identify as a man but according to the label on a box of Stauffers Baked Lasagne I'm actually a family of four

            The online issues are not as good as the real thing but provide excellent reading. You can google a model you remember, "1974 Kawasaki 900 Z1 Cycle World test" and the issue will come up.
            I just read about it (it was groundbreaking at the time) and also the Kawasaki 750 H2 which did a 12.89 1/4 mile. As a man from the '80's I read through these all the time. Ah the '80's! The Best of Times. I hope this helps.

              My older brother subscribed to Cycle, Cycle World, and Motorcyclist for about 15 years. We all (including another brother) read them cover to cover, including the ads. It was a scramble to get to the issues when they arrived. You'd think we'd defer to the one paying, but naaaah!

                Corrections: it was the 1973 Z1 (which sold for $1973) that was groundbreaking, and the '70s were the best of times.
                And genuflect when you say, "Cycle World."
