Description

Chang Jiang is the brand name of motorcycles that were once manufactured by the China Nanchang Aircraft Manufacturing Company. It takes its name from the Chang Jiang River, also known as the Yangtze or, in English, the Long River.

The CJ750 is based on the 1956 Soviet Irbitski Mototsikletniy Zavod (IMZ) M-72, which was derived from the earlier German 1938 BMW R71. Nearly all of them have sidecars.


Production began in the late 1950s or early 1960s (Different sources cite different dates.) They were originally produced for the Chinese military and are powered by an air-cooled, four-stroke, opposed-twin engine displacing 746 cc (45.5 cu in). The rear wheel is shaft-driven.
