Yep The Horse. Cool bikes, most built in garages, and biker babes too.

The Horse features real bikes built by real people not some fat tired $100,000 custom built by the Discovery channel....

I keep asking myself the same question about a magazine with metric bikes in it. I can never seem to find any. Dice and The Horse tend to have one every now and then and I think Ive seen a couple in Cycle Source. You'd think with the huge following xs bikes and brat style has thered be some type of magazine dedicated just to jap bobs n choppers.

The Horse is nothing compared with the old (and original) Iron Horse magazine. Editorially they didn't care what you rode as long as you RODE! The parent company started adding some 900 phone adverts and the editorial staff bitched about it. In response the editor and most of the staff was canned. They replaced the staff with some folks who tried but it didn't fly and the parent company shut it down. I remained online for a while with some of the origonal staffers, but I don't know if it is still there or not.

Back Street Heroes, a British mag has a mixture. It's usually in Barnes and Noble. The issue there now has an XS featured. I grew up on that mag. Used to be a lot better in the 80's. I still have all the back issues. My inspiration for my XS hardtail that I hope to build was in that mag in about '90. A red and black tiger stripe chopper. AWOL used to be good too.
