"Look, it's real simple. We're bored with social media. We like magazines. We think you do too. That said, we're asking for your help in bringing HOT BIKE Magazine back to print in 2023! HOT BIKE magazine has been an iconic part of American history and is the archetype of American V-twin performance and custom culture since 1971.
Due to the corporate bean counters who saw HOT BIKE magazine as a "line item," the magazine temporarily ceased publishing in 2019... Until now! After acquiring the rights to this iconic brand, the new independently owned and operated HOT BIKE owners felt you fine folks were worth reading an actual magazine once again. We're working hard to bring this iconic, 50-year-old print magazine back in 2023, but we cannot do it without your support. We've secured the right printers using quality materials. We've hired the best photographers and writers who know their shit. We've curated the best overall humans (no algorithms to speak of) to help bring this magazine back to your doorsteps in 2023. Essentially, Kickstarter is a public crowdfunding resource where funds are collected to back a creative project. It's an all-or-nothing concept, so after a project is created and a financial goal is set, backers are only charged if the collective funding meets or exceeds that goal on or around the date the campaign's deadline is reached. If the financial goal isn't reached, nobody gets charged a dime. Simple. For Hot Bike, it's essentially a pre-paid subscription for four issues in 2023 that backers helped contribute to its return. And dependent on the tier YOU support, you'll get some cool swag too! Please go here to get involved. Thank you!" Jordan Mastagni
