What Do You Dislike About AIM?

[Chris Maida]

Since I try to be a thorough guy, what do you like the least about the features and articles we offer in American Iron magazine?

I can't say that there's anything I dislike, you guys cover the bases pretty well.

I think about the CMT show "Chopper Challenge". They featured those unknown (at least to me) small time bike builders. Maybe run features on some of those young, up and coming bike builders out there. And not just their bikes but include their outlook on where biking is going.

Keep up with articles like JoAnn Bortles, show what the "girls" are doing out there!

There aren't enough pictures of Buzz.

I haven't seen anything yet that doesn't appeal to me. Good job keeping the soft porn out of it. That doesn't appeal to me at all. Thanks.

That it only comes out once a month.

IMHO there isn't enough about real live builders. Seems to be too many show bikes that only get ridden off the trailer then bikes that are ridden to the shows. Like it was said show more of the up and coming guys and gals building and where they want to go with their builds.

include more maintenance articles

Not enough readers rides.
They can be the pics that readers send in of their own bikes.
I really like the fact that its not a girly mag as well.
Great Job fellas, keep it up!!!

you took the words right out of my mouth,too many features on bikes that are all form and no practical function.personally,i like seeing bikes that you can actually hop on and ride a couple hundred miles.

More performance mods, more readers rides
less coverage on show bikes that will never be riden on the street except for a photo op.

Chris, thanks for asking - can't imagine editors at other magazines doing the same. I agree about fewer showboats and more real riders.

And how about shining your spotlight on some smaller, lesser known shops and builders. You seem to focus on the same handful of shops over the years.
