While the Coscharis Motors most prominently sold model remains the BMW R1200 series, which is the BMW Authority bike, the company services an array of BMW Bike models.

Coscharis welcomed a BMW Bike enthusiast and owner, Mariusz Sliwa from Germany who started his touring journey from Germany. Sliwa intends to tour the stretch of Africa in his BMW R1250GSA.

According to Mariusz Sliwa, he embarked on the tour because he drives for fun and always want to be on the road. He also said driving a BMW bike makes the journey easy. This confirms the Motorcycle Industry Council Consumer Experience Study that shows that BMW Bike owners are “experienced riders” who have 34 years of riding experience and cover 3 times as many miles as the average adventure bike owner in a year (5,000 vs 1,700).

For Mariusz Sliwa, his confidence in the BMW GSA model plus its reliability, prompted him to tour the length of Africa. He started his Journey from Germany – Holland – Belgium – France – United Kingdom – Ireland – Spain, ( 28 hours on the ship to Spain from Ireland), from Spain to Morocco and then to Nigeria via Benin. From Nigeria, he plans to ride en-route Cameroon, South Africa and so on till he finishes the tour. He has set a one year target to complete the tour.
