The BMW R75 is a global War II-era motorcycle and sidecar combo produced by the German company BMW.
Within the 1930s BMW were creating a number of popular and impressive motorcycles. In 1938 development of the R75 were only available in response to a submission from the German Army.
Preproduction models of the R75 were run by the 750 cc part valve engine, which was based on the R71 engine unit. Nonetheless it was quickly found essential to design an all-new OHV 750 cc engine unit for the R75 device. This OHV engine motor later became the foundation for following post-war twin BMW engines like the R51/3, R67 and R68.
The 3rd side-car wheel was driven with an axle linked to the trunk wheel of the motorcycle. We were holding equipped with a locking differential and selectable road and off-road products ratios by which all and invert gears worked. This made the R75 highly manoeuvrable and capable of negotiating most areas. 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 extensively employed 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 after standardization of parts for both machines, with a view of eventually developing 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 arranged that the produce of the R75 would cease once production reached 20,200 models, and after that point BMW and Z?ndapp would only produce the Z?ndapp-BMW machine, developing 20,000 each year.
Since the aim for of 20,200 BMW R75's had not been reached, it continued to be in production until the Eisenach manufacturer was so badly harmed by Allied bombing that creation ceased in 1944. An additional 98 systems were put together by the Soviets in 1946 as reparations.
