Largen Motorcycles is a company founded by Christofer Ratcliffe and Vincenzo Mattia in 2019, joining forces to build ultra-lightweight pure motorcycles. Both founders had the same desire to push boundaries to a new level.
In 2022, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Langen Motorcycles Lightspeed. This sporty-looking machine didn't deliver only good looks but also impressive performance matched by excellent handling.
The bike packs standard features, such as a round headlight integrated into a stylish cowl, a single seat, a two-into-one exhaust system, side-mounted rear shock absorbers, and seven-spoke lightweight wheels.
It is built around a high-tensile tubular steel space frame with a 48 mm Ohlins fork on the front and twin Ohlins shock absorbers on the rear, providing excellent suspension performance and handling.
As for braking performance, the motorcycle uses a pair of ultra-lightweight 320 mm floating discs on the front wheel and a single solid 265 mm disc on the rear wheel, providing excellent stopping power.
In the performance area, the 2022 Langen Motorcycles Lightspeed packs a 1,190cc V-twin engine managed by a fuel injection system, delivering an output power of 185 hp at 10,600 rpm and 138 Nm (102 lb-ft) torque at 8,200 rpm.
