The BMW R75 is a global War II-era motorcycle and sidecar mixture produced by the German company BMW.

In the 1930s BMW were producing a volume of popular and impressive motorcycles. In 1938 development of the R75 started in respond to a need from the German Army.

Preproduction types of the R75 were power by way of a 750 cc side valve engine, that was based on the R71 engine. Nonetheless it was quickly found essential to design an all-new OHV 750 cc engine for the R75 unit. This OHV engine later became the foundation for succeeding post-war twin BMW engines like the R51/3, R67 and R68.

The 3rd side-car wheel was influenced with an axle connected to the rear wheel of the motorcycle. These were fitted with a locking differential and selectable street and off-road gear ratios by which all four and reverse gears worked well. This made the R75 highly manoeuvrable and with the capacity of negotiating most areas. Additional motorcycle manufactures, like FN and Norton, provided an optional drive to sidecars.

The BMW R75 and its own competitor the Z?ndapp KS 750 were both widely utilized by the Wehrmacht in Russia and North Africa, though after a period of evaluation it became clear that the Z?ndapp was the superior machine. In August 1942 Z?ndapp and BMW, on the urging of the Army, agreed after standardization of parts for both machines, with a view of eventually developing a Z?ndapp-BMW hybrid (selected the BW 43), in which a BMW 286/1 side-car would be grafted onto a Z?ndapp KS 750 motorcycle. They also arranged that the manufacture of the R75 would stop once production come to 20,200 items, and after that point BMW and Z?ndapp would only produce the Z?ndapp-BMW machine, developing 20,000 each year.

Since the goal of 20,200 BMW R75's was not reached, it continued to be in production until the Eisenach manufacturer was so badly broken by Allied bombing that production ceased in 1944. An additional 98 products were set up by the Soviets in 1946 as reparations.
