In Inglourious Basterds[]

When Colonel Hans Landa arrives at Perrier LaPadite's farm in his Mercedes-Benz 170 VK, he is being escorted by two R12 motorcycles. The motorcycles lacked their typical sidecar.

In the first scene of Chapter Three, where Shosanna brings a basket full of title letters outside, a BMW R 71 motorcycle with sidecar is seen parked on the street, near Shosanna's cinema.
