TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS

Discover some of the headline technical highlights which make the Lightspeed an icon.

HORSEPOWER (HP)

Superbike level electronics package developed by Langen Technology delivers a perfectly linear power delivery through the entire rpm range up to a class leading 185bhp.
Traction and launch control modes are dialled to provide controllable power for each owners abilities and bravery - whether it be touring, commuting, racetrack or drag strip, the Lightspeed adapts to you.

DRY WEIGHT (kg)

Lightweighting is a core philosophy across all Langen machines.
The Lightspeed adopts this philosophy and takes it far beyond any machine outside of the race paddock.
Every component and exotic material has been optimised to save grams.
The result? A dry weight that redifines a class. Aided by Langen's signature chassis and geometry, the Lightspeed's dynamic performance and cornering agility is difficult to comprehend.

138

MAX TORQUE (Nm)

"Horsepower sells motorcars, torque wins races" - Carroll Shelby.
The Lightspeed's most defining attribute is acceleration. Langen electronics allow a class leading maximum torque of 138Nm.
The real magic is how this is delivered.
Max torque is reached at just 4000rpm and continues the peak through to redline at 10,500rpm. Any speed, any gear, any rpm, brutal acceleration is on tap.

1000

BHP/TONNE

Boasting a power-to-weight ratio synoymous with only the most advnacd and performance focussed supercars and race machines, the Lighstpeed is a unicorn amongst road going production motorcycles.

185 commissioned builds

"Each Lightspeed not only has the unique character of a Langen, but also reflects the character of the individual" - Christofer Ratcliffe

Every Lightspeed is built to order, and is created in the eyes of its new owner and custodian. We believe that it is impossible to create a motorcycle to cater for more than one person. The Lightspeed provides a base for each individual to create and perfect the dream bike. Ergonomics and geometry refinement form the basis of each build. It is essential that each langen is tailored to the rider to provide optimised comfort, ride height, suspension set up and geometry.
‍
Beyond creating the perfect chassis and ride set up, each owner has the oppprtunity to work with our design and engineering team to impart their own unique character into their machine. Every component on the Lightspeed can be customised for aesthetic colour and material changes.
‍
A range of hard part options are also possible, for example, full titanium race exhaust system, lightweight spoked/wire wheels and pillion seat.
