BMWK 75 1985 - 1986

　　In 1985, the K 75 model was introduced, which should have marked the start together with the k 75 S model. BMW decided and gave priority to the K 75 C model, the one with the cockpit fairing fixed to the handlebar, and postponed the production of the basic model for one year.

　　In 1986, BMW finally released the K 75 basic model that featured a redesigned front end with free-standing turn signals, a round headlight, and an instrument panel. The basic model, with its three-cylinder engine that didn’t look so powerful, and its naked-bike profile, proved to be the most successful K model, with great agile performance.

　　In addition, thanks to the even lower curb weight of 227 kg (500 lbs), the bike was easily driveable without compromising on straight-line stability.

　　The 740cc three-cylinder engine that drove the bike out through the gates of the production line came prepared with an output power of 75 hp at 8,500 rpm and 68 Nm (50 lb-ft) of torque available at 6,750 rpm and launched the bike to a top speed of 200 kph (125 mph).

　　The 1986 BMW K 75 model came with standard features such as a telescopic front fork with a hydraulic shock absorber, a Monolever rear suspension, a dual seat, an analog instrument cluster, cast-aluminum wheels, a rear luggage rack, and a side stand.
