Choppy shifts do not do justice to the K-75's linear-style power delivery...especially in a video. Best to wind out 3rd-4th-5th gears keeping rpm between 4000rpm close to redline when traffic and road conditions ( hwy's ) allow. Winding this motorcycle out will not harm it, rather it's built to run those revs all day, every day, week, month, year. I speak from experience, having owned and ridden two of them. Best model BMW ever built, smooth as owl hooti at any speed. You don't have to drive it hard, you can shift it into 5th gear at 45-50 and bring the cows in.
Mooie fiets. Zo'n K75RT heb ik ook gehad, ook in die kleur. Ik heb er een verhoogde ruit op gezet, omdat ik hem, ook in de winter, voor mijn werk nodig had. Later ingeruild voor een R1100RT. Nu rij ik een R1200RT. Jammer dat ze met de productie van de R75RT (eventueel in een gemoderniseerd jasje) zijn gestopt. Ik heb het altijd een fijne fiets gevonden...
Beautiful bike. I love that color. I'd love a K75RT, but I rode one once and it just felt like it needed a 6th gear. Not sure if I could stand the high revs at highway speed. The owner said "you get used to it".
IV owned a few K series BMW IV ridden them everywhere including round Australia I cut the fork gaiters off in very hot weather just in case the fuel didn't boil and the wheels on some the silver mag's can bend leaving a bent front rim try and get the latest black mag's models apart from that no issues whatsoever I'd buy another K75S tomorrow if 1 became available
Trés bonne moto, et en superbe état !!
J'ai changé mon XJR1300 pour ce modèle, incomparables en tous points, mais quel plaisir de conduite en BMW !

Looks and sounds nice
Had one of these, rode it from AZ to TX and then up to Colorado and back. Only issue? Keeping the clutch cable tensioned properly!!!
Ik krijg nog steeds nostalgische gevoelens als ik dit hoor en zie...

Poor enough pilot
