In 1985, BMW released the K 75 S, a motorcycle with a sporty style with a half-shell fairing fixed on the frame. The S model featured integrated turn signals and a rectangular headlight in the fairing and was differentiated from the C model by the narrower and lower handlebar, a tighter-tuned sports suspension, and a disc brake onto the 17-inches rear wheel.
The frame and engine were identical to the sister model, but the S motorcycle had a snappier and more precisely drive on winding roads. The elegant half-shell well received by the customers also provided good wind protection and seat ergonomics.
As for the other models, the BMW Motorrad’s wide range of touring accessories with integral cases, tank bags, and much more were also available for the 1985 BMW K 75 S.
The 740cc three-cylinder in-line engine that powered the 75 S model had an output power of 75 hp at 8,500 rpm and 68 Nm (50 lb-ft) of torque with a peak at 6,750 rpm that managed to drag the bike to a top speed of 210 kph (131 mph).
In addition, the model came with features such as a Brembo braking system with dual front discs, a dual seat, cast-aluminum wheels, black engine accents, an analog instrument cluster, and a center stand.
