From Biker Chick to Biker Chic

  
  
  

While vacationing on Hutchinson Island, FL last week (and spending lots of time on the golf course), an article appeared in the Palm Beach Post about a group of woman motorcycle riders.

What changes in your customers has your dealership seen in recent years?  How are you marketing, merchandising and selling differently based on changing customer demographics?
