WW2 German Wehrmacht Scheinwerfer – MOTORCYCLE HEADLIGHT LAMP – KS750 BMW R75

You are bidding on SUPERB used example of a WW2 German Wehrmacht Headlamp Light, as used in various motorcycles! This type was famously used on the Zündapp KS750, BMW R75, and others!

The BMW R75 is a World War II-era motorcycle and sidecar combination produced by the German company BMW. The BMW R75 stands out by its integral two-wheel drive design, with drive shafts to both its rear wheel and the third side-car wheel, from a locking differential, as well as a transfer case offering both road and off-road gear ratios, through which all forward and reverse gears worked. This made the R75 highly manoeuvrable and capable of negotiating most surfaces. A few other motorcycle manufactures, like FN and Norton, offered optional drive to sidecars.

Made of aluminum, glass, and steel, this is a SUPERB example! Though it retains 98% original Dunkelgelb paint, I cannot tell if this is an original or repro. There are some very minor marks due to the age, but nothing that detracts. Still features the original speedometer, however, there is a crack in the glass, as you can see in the photos. Missing the upper switch, but those are easy to find and replace. I have indicated it’s location in the last photo. A PERFECT item for any collection, display, or restoration project!
