The BMW R75 is a World Conflict II-era motorcycle and sidecar combo made by the German company BMW.
Inside the 1930s BMW were producing a quantity of popular and impressive 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 power by way of a 750 cc part valve engine, which was predicated 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 motor later proved to be the basis for subsequent post-war twin BMW engines like the R51/3, R67 and R68.
The 3rd side-car wheel was powered with an axle connected to the rear wheel of the motorcycle. These were fitted with a locking differential and selectable road and off-road gear ratios by which all and invert gears worked. This made the R75 highly manoeuvrable and with the capacity 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 widely used 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 upon standardization of parts for both machines, with a view of eventually developing a Z?ndapp-BMW hybrid (designated 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 production of the R75 would cease once production reached 20,200 systems, and after that point BMW and Z?ndapp would only produce the Z?ndapp-BMW machine, making 20,000 every year.
Since the aim for of 20,200 BMW R75's had not been reached, it remained in production until the Eisenach manufacturing plant was so terribly broken by Allied bombing that production ceased in 1944. A further 98 models were set up by the Soviets in 1946 as reparations.
