Acquired from the Hearst Corporation, Cycle World will maintain its current editorial and writing staff as it moves to Bonnier, and from what we&#8217;ve gathered talking to CW employees the transition is being viewed favorably, and is in the best interest of the publication.

It looks like the brand will live on though, as Cycle News has been acquired by the Motorsport Aftermarket Group (MAG), the owner of such brands like Vance &#38; Hines, Renthal, and Performance Machine. MAG will now own and operate the cyclenews.com site, and will bring back former editor Paul Carruthers, who left Cycle ...]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/mag-acquires-cycle-news/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>3</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>LEAKED: 2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R Details</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/bikes/2011-kawasaki-zx-10r-leaked/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/bikes/2011-kawasaki-zx-10r-leaked/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 29 Sep 2010 08:07:05 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jensen Beeler</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Bikes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Popular]]></category> <category><![CDATA[10R]]></category> <category><![CDATA[2011]]></category> <category><![CDATA[2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R]]></category> <category><![CDATA[2011 ZX-10R]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Kawasaki]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Kawasaki ZX-10R]]></category> <category><![CDATA[leak]]></category> <category><![CDATA[print is dead]]></category> <category><![CDATA[zx-10r]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=14735</guid> <description><![CDATA[Who has two thumbs, $4.99, and no embargo obligations? These guys [holds up thumbs]! Do you want to know every dirty secret about the 2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R, but don't want to wait until the big end-of-the-year bike shows? Well don't worry, we won't make you wait any longer than these overly-hyperbolized introductory paragraphs. In what can only be described as another "accidental" story leak by Cycle World, this embargoed information could be bought for $4.99 at the right news stand in Hollywood this evening (by the way, it's a long drive from San Francisco). Since Asphalt &#038; Rubber isn't under any obligations to keep this information secret, we've waded through the non-copyrightable facts and figures on the 2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R and printed them here.The first thing you need to know about the 2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R is that it comes in the color green.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/bikes/2011-kawasaki-zx-10r-leaked/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>8</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Cycle News Rumored to Have Shut Its Doors</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/rumors/cycle-news-magazine-closes/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/rumors/cycle-news-magazine-closes/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 01 Sep 2010 12:59:16 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jensen Beeler</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Rumors]]></category> <category><![CDATA[business]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Cycle News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[journalism]]></category> <category><![CDATA[media]]></category> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[online]]></category> <category><![CDATA[print]]></category> <category><![CDATA[print is dead]]></category> <category><![CDATA[publication]]></category> <category><![CDATA[rumor]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=14000</guid> <description><![CDATA[UPDATE: Cycle News has indeed closed its business doors. Rumors are rife that Cycle News has closed it&#8217;s doors after nearly 50 years of motorcycle print publishing. Once the pinnacle publication of the industry, Cycle News has slowly seen its readership get eaten up by conglomerate driven publications like Cycle World, Motorcyclist, and Sport Rider&#8230;and of course web-based motorcycle news sites like yours truly. As Superbike Planet&#8217;s Dean Adams puts it, &#8220;if true, this is ...]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/rumors/cycle-news-magazine-closes/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>3</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Visordown to Go Paperless &#8211; Online Only Magazine After September Issue</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/visordown-goes-online-only/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/visordown-goes-online-only/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 14 Jul 2010 21:33:35 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jensen Beeler</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[digital]]></category> <category><![CDATA[magazine]]></category> <category><![CDATA[online]]></category> <category><![CDATA[online publication]]></category> <category><![CDATA[online-only]]></category> <category><![CDATA[paperless]]></category> <category><![CDATA[print]]></category> <category><![CDATA[print is dead]]></category> <category><![CDATA[this should be interesting]]></category> <category><![CDATA[TWO]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Two Wheels Only]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Visordown]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=12543</guid> <description><![CDATA[British motorcycle magazine Visordown will sell its last hardcopy of its magazine this September, as the publication shifts to a digital-only format. Formerly Two Wheels Only (TWO), the magazine changed its name to Visordown in 2009. The move to an online-only format is result of the dwindling advertising revenue in the print world, which hit the motorcycling industry especially hard in the recession, and reduction in Visordown&#8216;s circulation. Most of the Visordown crew will remain ...]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/visordown-goes-online-only/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>10</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Motorcyclist Magazine Steals From Online Motorcycle News Sites &#8211; Shows How Completely Incompetent They Are When It Comes to the Internet</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/oped/motorcyclist-magazine-steals-from-asphalt-and-rubber/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/oped/motorcyclist-magazine-steals-from-asphalt-and-rubber/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 16 Feb 2010 20:35:57 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jensen Beeler</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Opinion/Editorial]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Popular]]></category> <category><![CDATA[copyright]]></category> <category><![CDATA[intellectual property]]></category> <category><![CDATA[IP]]></category> <category><![CDATA[IP law]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Motorcyclist]]></category> <category><![CDATA[motorcyclist magazine]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Motorcyclist Online]]></category> <category><![CDATA[print is dead]]></category> <category><![CDATA[theft]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=8558</guid> <description><![CDATA[I got a strange email today...which isn't that strange in of itself, because I get strange emails on a regular basis, but the email contained a link to Motorcyclist Online, the internet version of Motorcyclist Magazine, which is owned by Source Interlink Media.

What do they have to report? A 1650cc V4 motor with two valves per cylinder that features direct injection, which sums up to equal 140hp. If you forgot everything you know about the Motus MST-01 to-date, and approached the motorcycle motor from a mechanic's perspective, you might mistaken the V4 motor for half a Corvette. Laid out just like an American-built V8, the large reason for the similarities is because the Motus MST-01 motor was designed by Katech, makers of the Corvette Z06's 600hp V8 powerplant.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/bikes/motus-mst-01-gasoline-direct-injection/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>13</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>EICMA: Mea Culpa Moto Guzzi</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/mia-cupa-moto-guzzi-eicm/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/mia-cupa-moto-guzzi-eicm/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Sun, 22 Nov 2009 01:42:06 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jenny Gun</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[EICMA]]></category> <category><![CDATA[mea culpa]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Moto Guzzi]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Moto Guzzi V12 Strada]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Moto Guzzi V12 Strada concept]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Moto Guzzi V12 X]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Moto Guzzi V12 X concept]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Moto Guzzi V7 Clubman Racer]]></category> <category><![CDATA[press]]></category> <category><![CDATA[print is dead]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=6631</guid> <description><![CDATA[We suspect there&#8217;s a Moto Guzzi PR agent homeless in the streets of Milan right now, after not one, but two mix-ups have occurred.
