Over the years we have played a significant role in the development of new innovations in the powersports industry. When we write about the history of the sport, it’s often from the first-person perspective of having been there when it happened. And, when it comes to testing products, our evaluations are based on years of firsthand riding experience and technical expertise. Simply put, our editorial staff are the most knowledgeable in the industry and the most sought after by enthusiasts and consumers worldwide.

FMF Racing utilizes the vast knowledge of the Dirt Bike staff to really put our products to the test, and we rely on their feedback to always progress our product line.

—Donny Emler Jr Marketing Director FMF Racing


Dirt Bike magazine is the premier publication for the dirt enthusiast. Because the magazine covers the gamut of the sport—from woods racing, motocross, closed-course off-road, and the blossoming dual-sport and adventure bike world—our readers aren’t shoehorned into a trackonly publication. For over 40 years, Dirt Bike magazine has offered high-end race tests, long-term evaluations, large sections of hop-ups and technical features, and stayed ahead of the trends to keep our readers informed. Dirt Bike is STILL the #1 newsstand-selling off-road motorcycle magazine, and now with the power and immediate, single-click, worldwide reach of our NEW Mobile App version to market your company’s products to a fast-growing segment of off-road consumers. Dirt Bike offers you the best growth opportunities across all media platforms in the industry. If you have a product or service for motocross, off-road, enduro, desert, dual sport, adventure or hare scrambles, Dirt Bike remains your #1 and most cost-effective choice.

I feel that Dirt Bike magazine has been—and continues to be—a great resource for riders and racers in our industry. The [magazine and its staff] have a consistency of being honest and realistic in their reports, and I feel a common appeal to the everyday rider and racer. I am not much of an online guy, so I still enjoy the fact that we can have something tangible in our hands to read, not only today but in 20 years.
