Contents. Background As the 1970s came to an end, BMW faced three problems from developing its flat-twin boxer engine further:. Emissions regulations being developed in the and the meant that more control was needed over the amount of fuel entering the combustion chamber. From an engineering standpoint this was easier to achieve with more cylinders at an overall smaller displacement.
The market-led development of bikes was leading to the Japanese factories developing smoother and quicker machines based around a four-cylinder format. Bike comparison in the media at the time was based around top speed, and a four-cylinder when fully developed created more power. In combination, this meant that BMW's marketing to users of a superior bike, allowing them to price at a premium, was being quickly lost, resulting in a loss of sales and market share. At the time, BMW, Moto Guzzi and were the only major 'high end' manufacturers that did not offer liquid-cooled engines. Competing brands, notably of Japanese manufacture, were touting the superiority of their liquid-cooled engines and had introduced low maintenance shaft-drive technology in a growing number of their models. Concept BMW needed to develop a clean burning four-cylinder engine quickly. While a would have been suited to their boxer tradition and experience, it would also give the appearance that they were copying 's.
In 1977, Josef Fritzenwenger presented a prototype using a from a. The engine, which was installed in the 104 at a 72° angle, was laid flat in the frame with the crankshaft on the right,. This layout, for which BMW submitted a patent application, was well suited to BMW's traditional shaft drive, needing only one 90° bevel drive to transmit power to the rear wheel.
Using shaft drive with the near-vertical preferred by would have needed two 90° bevel drives, doubling the power lost to the inefficiency of these units. The new layout also kept the bike's centre of gravity low, which improved the bike's handling, and made space behind the front wheel available for the radiator. Design and development. K100 engine closeup Fritzwenger's concept was developed by a team led by Stefan Pachernegg based on criteria set out by R. Michel and K. Martin Probst, who had earlier worked with the development of BMW's engine, was responsible for engine testing and development.
As an automobile manufacturer, BMW had about twenty years of experience with liquid cooled overhead camshaft inline engines. This was carried over to the K100 engine, which used a fuel injection similar to that being introduced on their. Replacing the Bing carburettors traditionally used on BMW motorcycles, the fuel injection system increased power, broadened and smoothed the powerbandand reduced fuel consumption, partly by shutting off fuel under deceleration to 2000 rpm. The engine also featured a breakerless electronic ignition system. The engine was positioned with the crankshaft on the right-hand side of the motorcycle and the cylinder head, camshafts, injectors and spark plugs on the left-hand side. This improved access to the engine over that of a conventional design, where the crankshaft would be at the bottom and the cylinder head and associated parts would be between the engine block and the upper frame. K75 BMW K75.
1987 BMW K75T The BMW K75 is a produced by from 1985 to 1995. At the time of its introduction, the K75 was BMW's least expensive motorcycle. The three-cylinder BMW K75 was developed alongside the K100, but was introduced a year after the K100 as a marketing strategy.
The K75 engine had the same bore and stroke as the K100, yielding a displacement of 740 cc. Its crankshaft had 120° between the throws and was counterbalanced by balance weights added to the water pump accessory shaft, which ran at engine speed as is correct for a 120° straight-three engine. The balance shaft made the K75's engine smoother than the K100's engine.
To increase the smaller engine's power, the K75's engine was given longer valve timing, the compression ratio was increased to 11.0:1 from the K100's 10.2:1, the combustion chambers were redesigned, the intake manifold was shortened, and the exhaust system was retuned. The US market engine, specified to meet (EPA) requirements, produced 68 hp (51 kW); engines for all other markets produced 75 hp (56 kW). K75 valve cover The front engine mounts on the K75 frame are placed further back than in the K100 frame and the downtubes are at a different angle; otherwise the frames are identical. The K75 had the same wheelbase, seat height, and steering geometry as the K100. According to BMW, 80 percent of the K75's parts are interchangeable with the K100's. The K75's radiator and fuel tank were smaller than those on the K100.
Specifications A single-sided hollow enclosing the drive shaft provides right side drive through the gearbox and to the rear wheel. The 3-into-1 all stainless steel exhaust exits on the left hand side. Brakes are two-piston callipers onto undrilled discs. Two different manufactures are used: Showa with an outer upper tube diameter of 1.612 in (40.9 mm) and Fichtel and Sachs measuring 1.627 in (41.3 mm). K100 models. K100RT. K100, with no fairing.
K100C with a small cockpit fairing mounted to the handlebar. K100RS, with sports fixed fairing and lower handlebars. K100RT, with full touring fairing.
K100LT, with higher screen and additional standard equipment for 'Luxury Touring'. K100TIC, developed as an Authorities vehicle to support a variety of emergency services configurations including Police, Ambulance, Fire, and Military, this model designation only existed until the end of the 1985 model year. It was equipped with a high output alternator, taller first gearing, and supplementary wiring harnesses to support a variety of equipment options All K100 models have dual front and single rear disk brakes.The RS model has taller gearing than other models. The K-series has additional refinements including aluminium fuel tanks, adjustable headlights, high capacity 460 watt alternators, Hella accessory plug-in, and self-cancelling turn signal lights. K75 models.
K75S with belly pan and touring bags. K75, a naked bike with no fairing.
K75T, a US-only touring model with a windscreen, touring bags, engine crash bars, and a rear top case. K75C, with a small cockpit fairing mounted to the handlebar. K75S, with sport fairing, stiffer suspension, and lower and narrower handlebars.
K75RT, with full touring fairing The S and RT versions have a rear disc brake and 17' rear wheels, whereas the others have a single leading shoe drum brake and 18' rear wheels. A stiffer 'anti-dive' front suspension was added to the S and RT models. The later RT versions had an adjustable windshield that could be raised and lowered. Some taller riders complained of wind buffeting with the smaller S model stock windscreens. Later developments The same team would later develop an improved four-valve-per-cylinder head for the aerodynamic. In later models, the standard swingarm was replaced with a as on the K1.
The LE Jetronic fuel injection system with separate ignition management was replaced by engine management with the introduction of four-valve cylinder heads with the 1990 K1 and the 1991 K100RS. Anti-lock brakes (ABS) were developed for K100 and K75 motorcycles and were installed on later models, which were among the first production motorcycles with this feature.
In 1993, the fork used on the K75S was replaced by a 41 mm (1.6 in) Showa fork. In 1994, the electrical system was given a larger 700 watt alternator and a smaller 19 Ah battery. For 1995 anti-lock braking was standard on the K75S. Two different forks manufacturers were used: Showa with an outer upper tube diameter of 1.612 in (41 mm) and Fichtel and Sachs measuring 1.627 in (41 mm). Sales Although sales were initially modest, buyers eventually warmed to the multi-cylinder BMWs.
The K100 was a relative sales success, stemming the losses to the Japanese and changing the media and public perception of BMW. The four-cylinder engine suffered from secondary vibration, but the three-cylinder K75, with its, was far smoother. The engineers had anticipated this, and had designed in excellent vibration isolation, but it was the only technical glitch. The competition were never far behind in performance on launch, updates were modest, while engine performance was stepped up with the September 1988 launch of the radically aerodynamic.
