Dieter Kemper (11 August 1937 – 11 October 2018) was a German cyclist who competed professionally between 1961 and 1980. During his career he won one UCI Motor-paced World Championships in 1975, seven European titles and 26 six-day road races.

After retiring from cycling he moved to North Holland with his wife, who later died of brain tumor in 2008.
