Thanks chaps. I will have to chase a copy of the latest issue up as the last I possess is the late Sept/Oct issue I think it was. Kind of lost track due to the vague release dates.

Go by the issue numbers. The latest one is Issue No. 9.

Thanks damien, I was just about to do a check as to # of the latest issue as finding people with copies has been fairly well no joy so far. For instance a couple of places have Issue 7 as latest, Pitstop bookshop says Issue 6 in the text but has a photo of cover of Issue 8 etc etc !! Does anybody know a retailer with latest copy in stock ??? :)

I can confirm that the latest issue Pitstop has in stock is #9, despite what the website depicts. Looks like I'll have to give our website guy a bit of a gee-up...;)

GSXR1.......Well at least your in front of the actual publishers website which still has issue #7 on the front!! Partly. The text part of the website has been fixed, but we're having problems exporting the cover image of #9 to the site for some reason. :confused:
We have the correct image loaded in our internal database, but the transfer routine is playing silly buggers for some reason...I'll never understand computers!!:D

Is Biante still selling this mag?

I have bought the first 8 issuses from Biante's website, but I haven't see anything on their website about issue #9.

I have bought the first 8 issuses from Biante's website, but I haven't see anything on their website about issue #9. I think the answer is NO frosty. I could not find any mention of it in the website categories nor any info in recent newsletters. That was why I decided I had better find out what the go was, after hearing that a recent copy had hit the streets but I knew nothing of it. I have secured a copy from Pitstop Bookshop in Perth, (Issue #9), being one of the very few places I have found it listed although I think Mark at Bridge Models in SA usually gets every issue into stock...

Thanks Billford1 for your reply. I better starting looking elsewhere for it.

Very strange that Biante haven't stated anything about it. That isn't their usual style.
