“After the BMW R 3 failed to achieve commercial success, a new single-cylinder model was included in the range in 1937 with the BMW R 35. This was the last pressed steel model to be launched by BMW on the market. The most striking innovation was the telescopic fork but in all other respects, the motorcycle was very closely based on the BMW R 4. With more than 1,500 units manufactured, the BMW R 35 succeeded in matching the commercial success of the previous models BMW R 2 and BMW R 4. The R 35, which cost almost 1000 Marks, was used in particular by the police and the military authorities both as a training vehicle and for dispatches. With over 15,000 sold by 1940, BMW again had a model in its program to match the R 2 and R 4 for turnover. The R 35 was the last model that BMW produced with a pressed steel frame. After the war came to an end, the BMW R 35 experienced a renaissance when production was started up again at the Eisenach plant using existing stocks of manufactured components”.
