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 range of popular and highly effective motorcycles. In 1938 development of the R75 were only available in response to a need from the German Military.

Preproduction types of the R75 were run by a 750 cc side 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 unit for the R75 device. This OHV engine motor later proved to be the foundation 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 rear wheel of the motorcycle. These were installed with a locking differential and selectable street and off-road gear ratios by which all and change gears proved helpful. This made the R75 highly manoeuvrable and with the capacity of negotiating most surfaces. Additional 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 utilized 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 Military, agreed after standardization of parts for both machines, with a view of eventually creating 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 make of the R75 would stop once production come to 20,200 devices, and from then on point BMW and Z?ndapp would only produce the Z?ndapp-BMW machine, developing 20,000 every year.

Since the focus on of 20,200 BMW R75's was not reached, it continued to be in production before Eisenach manufacturer was so terribly broken by Allied bombing that creation ceased in 1944. A further 98 systems were assembled by the Soviets in 1946 as reparations.
