Brook Reams has a very nice blog on the work he did on a R75/5...here's a section that deals with removing the crankshaft seal:
https://brook.reams.me/bmw-motorcyl.../11-bmw-r755-replacing-front-crankshaft-seal/
I'm sure there are other ways...I was thinking that using sheet metal screws put carefully into the seal at a couple of places would let you use something like a slide hammer to pop the seal out. There are other Lisle seal pullers, some that look like a claw hammer that can be used to hook the rubber and lever the seal out.

I removed the timing chest cover and did both seals that way, made it a piece of cake, but also a little more work t tear everything down and put back together
