    WHY:    Gas prices are soaring. Women's incomes have never been 
            higher in the United States. Women have never been so 
            independent. And FASHION is always paramount ... no 
            matter what a woman's activity. So more women are on 
            motorcycles than ever before ... and that means fashion 
            is hitting the motorcycle business. A recent survey by the
            American Motorcyclist Association showed 1 in 10 riders 
            is a woman. She averages about 43 years old and has a 
            mean household income of almost $60,000. And more than 
            half have at least some college education. Forget the 
            stereotypes! 

            The survey respondents listed concerns about safety and 
            the lack of products designed for women. The G-Line 
            addresses both issues. Come find out more about the trend
            before it literally rides past you!
