History
Launched in 1991 and edited by Frank Westworth, Classic Bike Guide mainly features original specification British motorcycles with occasional articles on foreign marques and one-off 'specials'. Under Westworth, a regular team of writers including Jim Reynolds, Steve Wilson and Rod Kerr penned many of these articles. Mortons Motorcycle Media Ltd acquired the magazine in January 2003.[1] Edited from 2003 by Tim Britton until September 2008, Nigel Clark until August 2012, it was then edited by Steve Rose until Gary Pinchin took the reins in March 2013. The magazine was given a fresh look and relaunched for the March 2013 issue.[2]
