Can-Am, a company that's widely known for its three-wheeled motorcycles, has partnered with rock icon Joan Jett and rapper, singer, and record producer SAINt JHN for a new ad campaign called 'Outliers.

The campaign seeks to honor the diverse community of on-road riders, and challenge the preconceived notions of how open-road riders should look and act to promote a culture of inclusion that allows more to experience the excitement that comes with the hobby.

Martin Ethier, Global Marketing Director for [Can-Am On-Road](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/can-am-origin) at [BRP](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/responsible-rider) spoke to the campaign, stating, “We’re seeing more and more people coming into the sport, especially women and people from diverse communities. No matter who they are, all Can-Am riders share one common bond; the love of hitting the road on a ride like no other.”
