A perfect combination
26 January 2012
With reference to our previous note (November), I thought I’d send you the story on the BSA combo we bought instead of the feature bike.
Mystery pipe

Re the Hailwood shot (December). The breather hanging down on the left seems odd.
Improvements...
24 November 2011.
I write to say what an enjoyable and much improved magazine Classic Bike Guide has become recently. The Commando article was very good indeed.
When wrong is right...
24 November 2011.
In reply to Martin Wilkie’s observation in the October issue that the bike was on the wrong side of the police phone box in the ‘Out of the Shed’ cartoon, the composition would have put the emphasis on the wrong part of the subject and the cartoon would not have worked if it had been drawn ‘the right way round’.
Tornado – Another angle
27 October 2011.
I read, with interest, the article on page 76 of the October CBG. We have been building, and listing (see our web site) road going Manx Nortons for four years now and they are not lash-ups as Steve Tonkin suggests.
Fix your disc
27 October 2011.
Make sure your tax disc is securely fitted to your bike because theft is on the increase.
British bikes – the end is nigh
29 September 2011.
Hurrah for Nigel Stennet-Cox and boo to Tom Bell.
No soul
29 September 2011.
With reference to the letters page in August’s issue and the nonsense of Nigel Stennett-Cox.
Japanese bikes in CBG
25 August 2011.
As one of your American subscribers, (conveniently comes in the mail, on time, and saves about 50% on newsstand price!) may I add my comments to the debate about Japanese bike content?
An understanding nature?
25 August 2011.
Firstly, I would like to say how much I like the new format of the magazine. It is rather more attractive then it used to be. I have noticed some anti-Japanese comments, which I find a little disappointing.
