BMW R75 Chang Jiang Repros

**Reg** · 05-13-2009, 07:09 PM

Hello All

Not sure if this question should be in the Re-enacting part of the forum! but could anyone tell me just how different the Chang Jiang 750 is from the original BMW R75. Ive not seen many decent photos of original wartime examples and was curious as to how original they can be made to look, would be a nice chance to post some nice pics of bikes on the forum too.

Thanks
Reg

Hi Reg, a friend of mine in 2nd Guards has one of these. They can be made to look passable.

Hi Ned, the link you posted is Kaput!

Cheers, Ade.

The first is IMO Soviet K 750 or M 72, I'am not such a big specialist. But the last one is "URAL" , I owned myself about 15 years ago

The best guys to ask are:

KRADRIDER : German Military Motorcycles of WW2

But, as an R12 owner, we're a bit sensitive about those CJ's!

PS I'll post photos asap of the R12 plus collection of deacts (inc scoped G43 old spec and MP44)

thanks for showing.

Some great links there thanks, it amazes me the ammount of repro ww2 things coming out of china, I wonder if they will realease the stock of wartime T34s they are rumoured to have or maybe even reproduce a Panzer mkIV. LOL.

Guess the credit crunch has slowed down any interesting repro projects over there.

Thanks
