THARMARO HOLDINGS EXPANDS<br />
FURTHER INTO THE <strong>MOTO</strong>RCYCLE<br />
INDUSTRY.<br />
Mr W.H. "Tiny" Steenkamp, chairman<br />
and mangaging director of Tharmarq<br />
Holdings has announced that his group<br />
has again extended its interest in the<br />
motor-cycle industry by taking over<br />
Kawacity in Randburg, and being<br />
appointed agents for BMW motorcycles.<br />
This follows closely upon the acquisition<br />
of the Kawasaki franchise in<br />
Johannesburg, through the purchase<br />
of M,racfë Motorcycles~ which chanqed<br />
its name to Kawasaki Centre and IS<br />
operating from 252, Marshall Street.<br />
Kawacity at 202, Hendrik Verwoerd<br />
Drive, Randburg, is being given a facelift<br />
to enhance its image.<br />
Tharmarq Holdings' appointed as<br />
distributors of BMW Motorcycles will<br />
ensure better representation and<br />
service for this prestige range of<br />
motorcycles. BMW recently<br />
announced two new models, the R45<br />
and R65. These medium-weight<br />
BMW's are new to the range and offer<br />
riders an alternative to the larger<br />
capacity machines. It is worth r,!)Pting<br />
that the BMW R45 is the smallest<br />
shaft-drive motorcycle on the market<br />
today.<br />
Tharmarq Holdings opened its first<br />
Motorcycle business on the 1st July,<br />
1978, in Alberton, where it has already<br />
made substantial inroads in that town.<br />
Mr Steenkamp proposes to increase<br />
the penetratión of Kawasaki and BMW<br />
into the Alberton, Johannesburg, and<br />
Randburg markets by stepping up<br />
servicing and other facilities, as well as<br />
sponsoring the Motor Cross Team in<br />
the 1979 season.<br />
