The Janus Halcyon 450 and Motorcycle Classics Magazine

Joe Gresh’s recent blog on the Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club and their magazine is, like all of Gresh’s writing, outstanding.  So much so that, as he suggested, I became a VJMC magazine subscriber.

I’d like to suggest another magazine, and as you have no doubt guessed from the title of this blog, it’s Motorcycle Classics.  I think it’s one of the best motorcycle magazines in existence.  Part of that is due to MC‘s quality…glossy paper, a great page count, great photos, and great writing.  And part of it is I get to see my work in MC‘s pages on a regular basis.  Most recently, it’s my story on the new Janus Halcyon 450.  Sue and I had a great time visiting with the Janus team in Goshen, Indiana, and the Halcyon 450 motorcycle is a winner.  Pick up a copy of Motorcycle Classics magazine and read the Halcyon 450 article.  Better yet, subscribe to Motorcycle Classics.

  1. Right there with you on both counts Joe. I am a member of the VJMC and subscribe to Motorcycle Classics. Those 2 magazines are about the only bike mags left worth reading.

  2. i do subscribe to MCM, but not for reading about new bikes.
    actually i think much of the bikes in the magazine now are too new. i suppose the need the later model jap bikes to stay in bizz. oh well. is there a magazine for bikes older? like motorcycle vintage magazine or something?
    maybe i will rejoin AMCA . i think they still have a 35 yr cut off.

    anyway, the janus
    , outside of having a horrible name, is just too expensive.
    joe beck is getting to sound more and more like floyd clymer.
    Cycle magazine was full of praise for every bike in the magazine. lol.

    1. Who is Joe “Beck?”

      Being compared to FLoyd Clymer ain’t too bad. I’ve been called much worse.

      If you think we are full of praise for every bike, take a look at our Baja advanture on the Royal Enfield Bullet.
