Classic racing machines are back on the pages! “RACERS” Vol. 11-20 reprinted: Fans delighted with the resale

A sequel to the long-running series and strong fan demand

“RACERS” is a mook series that delves deeply into the development secrets and background of the racing scene, focusing on one classic motorcycle racing machine per issue. Published by Sanei, this series has made it possible to access previously confidential technical information and development processes through the trust-building relationships built over time, bringing previously unknown stories to readers. Following the positive reception of reprints of Vol. 1-10, Vol. 11-20 will finally be reprinted and resold in response to complaints of “out-of-stock titles.” The reprinting will begin on September 25, 2025.

The contents and appeal of the lineup of reprinted volumes 11-20

Reprint titles from Vol. 11 to Vol. 20 include “Kawasaki Z Racer,” “Historic RG500 & RGB500,” “’02 RC211V,” “’04 YZR-M1,” “Aprilia RSV250,” “Rothmans NSR Part 2,” “’90-’91 RC250MA,” “Kawasaki “Z” Racer Part 2,” “SUZUKI RGΓ,” and “The Moriwaki in ’83-’85.” Each issue focuses on a model that represents a famous car or race in racing history. Rather than simply introducing specs, the magazine is packed with compelling content, including the vision of the development team at the time, strategies, technical challenges, and race anecdotes, making it a compelling read that will appeal not only to fans of the past, but also to readers interested in motorsports history.

Sales price, benefits, and how to purchase

The reprinted volumes 11 to 20 will be sold at the retail price of 1,310 yen (tax included). They will be distributed through the Sanei online store, bookstores nationwide, and online shopping sites such as Amazon. To commemorate the reprint, readers who purchase from the official Sanei online shopping site or select bookstores will receive a special postcard featuring an illustration of the racing machine used on the cover of each issue. However, postcards will be available while supplies last. This is a welcome added value for fans who love the cover illustrations.

Shipping start date and series durability

Shipping will begin on Thursday, September 25, 2025. RACERS has been running since Vol. 1, which includes the early issues from 2011 to 2013, and this reprint is a resale of Vol. 11 to 20. The series is currently up to its 77th issue, maintaining high popularity over the long term. The depth and archive power of the magazine, which has continually featured famous racing machines from the past, supports the series’ credibility and the expectations of fans.
