The BMW R75 is a global Battle II-era motorcycle and sidecar combination produced by the German company BMW.
Within the 1930s BMW were producing a volume of popular and impressive motorcycles. In 1938 development of the R75 were only available in response to a question from the German Military.
Preproduction models of the R75 were driven by a 750 cc part valve engine, which was based on the R71 engine. Nonetheless it was quickly found necessary to design an all-new OHV 750 cc engine motor for the R75 unit. This OHV engine motor later became the foundation for succeeding post-war twin BMW engines like the R51/3, R67 and R68.
The third side-car wheel was motivated with an axle connected to the trunk wheel of the motorcycle. They were installed with a locking differential and selectable highway and off-road equipment ratios through which all and change gears did the trick. This made the R75 highly manoeuvrable and with the capacity of negotiating most floors. Additional motorcycle manufactures, like FN and Norton, provided an optional drive to sidecars.
The BMW R75 and its rival the Z?ndapp KS 750 were both generally utilized by the Wehrmacht in Russia and North Africa, though after a period of analysis 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 creating 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 agreed that the produce of the R75 would stop once production come to 20,200 systems, and from then on 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 had not been reached, it remained in production before Eisenach manufacturer was so badly damaged by Allied bombing that production ceased in 1944. A further 98 products were put together by the Soviets in 1946 as reparations.
