Bloody hell £19 now. Looks over to pile of old bike mags <click -Gollum mode>
"precious" <click - reverts>
Time to off load my 10 year unbroken collection of Bike magazine and Classic Bike. 10 years ago I unloaded years and years worth of Bike magazines to TOG and bought a rather nice Takamine guitar with the proceeds.

The only old bike mags that fetch decent money are ones that contain original tests of some desirable classic bike - T120 Bonnie, Jota, Z1, RD350LC, Kettle, R90/S etc.
That said, your archive has paid for itself many times over.

I'm sure people are mis-reading the description and thinking it's like a Bacon restoration guide. The RD bit is only 9 pages!

What's interesting isthat you used to be able to download the hi-res PDFs for free from Classic Bike's website, but I've just had a peek and they've taken the site down, effectively.

To my regret SWMBO made me throw out a whole pile of Motorcyclist Illustrated (Alan Aspel, Dave Minton etc.) magazines some years ago. I managed to keep my hands on the many Motorcycle Sport issues though.

I assume it was a former EMAP publication. I'm guessing that EMAP retained copyright to the back catalogue as online archives of other titles don't seem to be available either e.g. the product tests that RiDE did before the takeover are no longer available.

I have no idea. I think it's more likely that Bauer has decided that they don't want to give stuff away when they can sell it, and if they're watching eBay, they'll know they're right.
