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

Within the 1930s BMW were creating a amount of popular and impressive motorcycles. In 1938 development of the R75 were only available in reaction to a demand from the German Military.

Preproduction models of the R75 were powered by way of a 750 cc aspect valve engine, that was predicated on the R71 engine unit. However it was quickly found necessary to design an all-new OHV 750 cc engine unit for the R75 product. This OHV engine later became the basis for following post-war twin BMW engines like the R51/3, R67 and R68.

The 3rd side-car wheel was powered with an axle linked to the rear wheel of the motorcycle. They were fixed with a locking differential and selectable street and off-road equipment ratios through which all and change gears proved helpful. 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 rival the Z?ndapp KS 750 were both widely used by the Wehrmacht in Russia and North Africa, though over time 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 upon standardization of parts for both machines, with a view of eventually creating a Z?ndapp-BMW hybrid (chosen 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 manufacture of the R75 would stop once production come to 20,200 models, and after that point BMW and Z?ndapp would only produce the Z?ndapp-BMW machine, developing 20,000 every year.

Since the aim for of 20,200 BMW R75's had not been reached, it continued to be in production before Eisenach stock was so terribly broken by Allied bombing that creation ceased in 1944. An additional 98 products were assembled by the Soviets in 1946 as reparations.
