Seeing this number really moved me. Back when I started riding, people used to say 'women aren't suited for motorcycles.' Now they're about a fifth of owners, and the fastest-growing segment at that.

Doubling in 10 years is a huge growth rate — the expansion of the women-rider segment has become a genuine, real trend.

Hitting 19% is a scale that should start affecting product planning and marketing across the whole industry.
