American Motorcyclist

American Motorcyclist is a U.S. magazine published by the American Motorcyclist Association, in Pickerington, Ohio.

The magazine covers topics and issues of interest and importance to association members and the motorcycling community in general.

Content Each monthly issue contains articles on a variety of riding styles, including touring, trail riding, motocross, enduro riding, road racing, cruising, adventure riding and dirt track racing.

The AMA also uses American Motorcyclist to inform its hundreds of thousands of members about federal, state and local laws and regulatory actions that affect the rights of motorcyclists and all-terrain-vehicle riders.

Other sections of the magazine include member profiles, product reviews, highlights from the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame, an events calendar and guest columns.

Circulation Since April 2013, American Motorcyclist has been available to AMA members in two editions – one targeting street riders, the other targeting competition and off-road riders. AMA members can choose to receive one version through the mail and can access both editions online through the AMA website. Members also may pay an extra fee and receive both issues through the mail.

Back issues of American Motorcyclist are available free to members in PDF format.

In the future it would be helpful if you indicated the changes that are needed. I updated the managing editor and did some other cleanup. The article seriously needs third party citations and may verge on non-notability as it stands. — Brianhe (talk) 11:35, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

The edits ticked off have been added. For copyright reasons, we cannot add the content exactly as published on the source websites. To avoid the article becoming overly promotional, some of the suggested content has been modified. -- Diannaa (talk) 01:24, 26 April 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for the changes and for the feedback. I am trying hard to avoid the promotional tone. Your editing is very helpful and instructive. AMA Jim (talk) 13:12, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
