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

Inside the 1930s BMW were creating a amount of popular and highly effective motorcycles. In 1938 development of the R75 were only available in response to a question from the German Army.

Preproduction types of the R75 were driven by a 750 cc side valve engine, which was predicated on the R71 engine motor. However it was quickly found necessary to design an all-new OHV 750 cc engine motor for the R75 device. This OHV engine motor later became the basis for succeeding post-war twin BMW engines like the R51/3, R67 and R68.

The 3rd side-car wheel was motivated with an axle linked to the rear wheel of the motorcycle. These were fixed with a locking differential and selectable street and off-road equipment ratios through which all four and change gears worked. This made the R75 highly manoeuvrable and capable of negotiating most surfaces. A few other motorcycle manufactures, like FN and Norton, provided an optional drive to sidecars.

The BMW R75 and its own rival the Z?ndapp KS 750 were both broadly employed by the Wehrmacht in Russia and North Africa, though over time 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 (designated the BW 43), when a BMW 286/1 side-car would be grafted onto a Z?ndapp KS 750 motorcycle. They also decided that the production of the R75 would cease once production come to 20,200 models, and from then on point BMW and Z?ndapp would only produce the Z?ndapp-BMW machine, processing 20,000 every year.

Since the goal of 20,200 BMW R75's was not reached, it remained in production before Eisenach factory was so terribly ruined by Allied bombing that development ceased in 1944. A further 98 products were assembled by the Soviets in 1946 as reparations.
