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

In 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 request from the German Army.

Preproduction models of the R75 were power by way of a 750 cc aspect valve engine, that was based on the R71 engine unit. However it was quickly found necessary to design an all-new OHV 750 cc engine motor for the R75 product. 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 driven with an axle linked to the trunk wheel of the motorcycle. We were holding installed with a locking differential and selectable street and off-road items ratios through which all and change gears performed. This made the R75 highly manoeuvrable and capable of negotiating most surfaces. 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 employed 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 building a Z?ndapp-BMW hybrid (specified 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 manufacture of the R75 would stop once production reached 20,200 devices, and from then on point BMW and Z?ndapp would only produce the Z?ndapp-BMW machine, processing 20,000 every year.

Since the target of 20,200 BMW R75's was not reached, it remained in production before Eisenach manufacturer was so terribly harmed by Allied bombing that production ceased in 1944. An additional 98 models were constructed by the Soviets in 1946 as reparations.
