Rider Magazine August 2017 Edizione posteriore

Where do you want to go today? Chances are the August 2017 issue of Rider will take you there! Our travel stories in this issue range from the White Mountains of New Hampshire and the Kancamagus Highway to the scenery and solitude of western Kansas, the adventurous and intimidating Haul Road in Alaska and the beautiful Balkans in Europe. Closer to home we put the new BMW R nineT Pure sport-standard to a full test, take a quick ride on Harley’s cool new Road King Special and flog the lil’ KTM 390 Duke in the city and up on a roof, of all places. In Tips, Tricks & Answers we have a new regular feature called Re-Cycling that takes a close look at great used bikes, in this case the Kawasaki Concours ZG1000, and we also took the new Suzuki GSX-R1000 for a hair-raising spin around Circuit of the Americas and the neighboring Austin, Texas, area. There’s big news on the Touring front in our Kickstarts section with the reveal of the new Yamaha Star Venture, and you’ll find plenty of new gear to read about in Gearlab and no shortage of opinions and (most likely) true stories from our columnists this month. Enjoy the issue!
