When BMW launched another version of the three-cylinder series with the BMW K 75 RT in 1989, the company primarily had its sights focused on the loyal customer base of government agencies. This was the time to replace the R 80 RT Boxer model which had enjoyed widespread use in the police service with a modern successor which met the requirements specified by the guidelines for government agencies on performance and price ceilings. With this aim in mind, the BMW K 75 was "upgraded" with the fairing of the BMW K 100 RT. This astonishingly manoeuvrable BMW K 75 RT was gratefully embraced by the Police Directorates and it generated correspondingly good demand.
