Bagging Motocross Action

[BIRDDOG]

I see not to many like MXA. I agree with many of their tests being biased. I read tests on many bikes I owned and did not agree at all.
94 yz250 "sleeper motor" 96 rm250 "shootout winner?" 99 cr250 "pro oriented motor" 01 cr250 "down on power" 02 cr250 "electric motor?"What the heck is an electric motor? a golf cart. Anyway what mags do you guys think tells the truth and is unbiased. I like Dirt Rider

I've always preferred dirtbike magazine.They seem to be the most level headed.Especially since Ron Lawson became editorin the early 90's.I agree that MXA is biased especially in favor of yamaha's and about as anti-suzuki as you can get.For some reason they think their opinion is fact and nodoby else matters.Their shootouts from 98-00 have been a joke.Their nothing but clips from their tests thrown together.And I've never seen anyone repeat more articles over and over again.Somehow these gurus can predict the future by saying that suzukis will always have headshake.Also they seem to be able to tell if a rider is trying or not and then they blast him with negative press.I could go on and on about these clowns.Thanks for letting me vent!

I read them all , but like Dirtrider the best. Any of them can seem biased , nobody is going to agree on everything. MXA has done a lot of repeat articles and they are not what they once were. Magazines are not the only motorcycle related things that can seem biased , I guess it just depends on your outlook on things.

I actually had Holeshot in mind with that one , but now that we are on a first name basis maybe I will come to Dirtweek and ride. :)

I like Dirt Rider, but I still read Motocross Action because they have some good things in them, but Motocross Action is the biggest Anti-KTM to ever walk on the earth. :|

Yeah, but Transworld Motocross and RacerX are the only mags that have decent pictures, and they're also good reading too.
