Welcome to the Classic Bikers Club website. We believe we offer visitors a unique resource drawn from our massive archive of images and literature going back to the turn of the twentieth century. News, image galleries, road tests, archive, videos and workshop and reference features are just some of the gems in this treasure-trove of motorcycling nostalgia.

There are three ways to access the website. You can browse as an ordinary user, or register (which is free) and gain access to our money-saving competitions and be able to contribute to the discussion area. Or, if you're a subscriber to one of our classic motorcycle titles listed below, you can enter your unique six digit Customer/Subscription ID number (on all subscription communications from Mortons Media Group) into your registered profile to gain access to content not visible to ordinary users.

Why register?
Registering is required to enter any online competitions and to contribute to the Classic Bikers Club discussion forums.

Subscriber benefits
If you are a subscriber to any of our magazines*, you can view all CBC content, which includes the 90,000-word authoritative A-Z Encyclopaedia of Classic Motorcycles, and all other Reference, Archive and Workshop features which are hidden to ordinary users. Here you will also find some great deals with our online partners and the opportunity to more than recoup your annual subscription fee. If you don’t currently subscribe to one of our titles view them on the www.classicmagazines.co.uk website.

Need help?
Question: I've entered my Customer ID, but I still cannot access premium content.
There are three possible reasons for this

1. Your Customer ID or name is not entered correctly. The site will warn you when you click 'Save'. Please contact us to verify your details.

2. Your subscription has lapsed. You can visit Classic Magazines now and check the status of your subscription(s) - and renew if needed! If you renew, you'll need to wait 24 hours for the new content to become re-available.
