What comes with a VJMC membership?
Features and benefits....
The VJMC works hard to add more value to its membership on a continual basis. For only $30 per year, you get a range of benefits that include the full color magazine, access to members-only content on our newly overhauled web site, access to people who KNOW about vintage Japanese bikes, and discounts with various vendors and services. We invite you to have a look at one of our recent magazine issues. Click on the image to the left and enjoy 47 pages of VJM material (Adobe Acrobat required).
