Starting June 1, 2020 SW-Motech U.S.A. will act as the official representation of SW-Motech GmbH & Co. KG. Furthermore, Sarah Schilke has been brought on to head up the U.S. operations. 

Among the changes Quentin Wilson, former Ducati and Alta Motors service manager will take on customer and dealer support, along with Christian Hansen, former NW sales manager for Alta. 

SW-Motech feels that working directly in the U.S. will allow the company to better promote its extensive range of Luggage, protection and ergonomic motorcycle accessories. “We are proud to extend our business operations to the United States and offer our full product line to riders throughout the country,” states Jürgen Swora, CEO of SW-Motech U.S.A. “With Sarah at the helm in a city densely populated with passionate motorcyclists and surrounded by some of the country’s best motorcycle roads, we know this will be a win for SW-Motech as well as for riders and dealers in the Pacific Northwest and all of the U.S.”

SW-Motech started in 1994 unknowingly, when a mechanical engineer built a tail tank for a motorcycle trip to Libya. With many motorcyclists interested in the product SW-Motech was founded in 1999. SW-Motech offers a wide variety of adventure, sport-touring, retro, and cruiser motorcycle accessories. Some of its most popular products include TRAX aluminum side and top cases, the patented Quick-Lock “tank ring” system, and premium crash bars. Engine guards, skid-plates, ergonomic parts, and many other accessories are also available for most current motorcycle models. 

Current SW-Motech customers will also be able to continue placing orders from Twisted Throttle LLC on the east coast which has been a SW-Motech partner since 2002.
