Langen Goes Global with New LightSpeed LS12: A British Powerhouse Taking on the World

Langen Motorcycles, the rising British brand, is making a bold leap into the global market with the introduction of their new flagship model, the LightSpeed LS12. This 1190cc V-twin beast, producing an impressive 185bhp and 101lb.ft of torque, is set to make waves worldwide as it gains approval for markets in Europe, North America, Australasia, and Asia. Following the success of their limited-run Two-Stroke model in 2020, Langen now aims to expand its reach by producing 185 units of the LightSpeed, each customizable to suit the buyer’s preferences.

Powered by the same 72° Rotax V-twin engine used in the Buell 1190SX, the LightSpeed’s lightweight design, featuring carbon fiber bodywork and in-house forged aluminum wheels, ensures top performance. With adjustable Öhlins suspension and high-performance Hel braking systems, this £44,400 machine promises to deliver a world-class riding experience. Set to hit UK roads by autumn 2025, Langen is also actively seeking investment to fast-track its global rollout, positioning itself as a key player in the international motorcycle industry.

Langen’s global ambitions have already seen success, with the first Two-Stroke model shipped to Japan in March, marking a milestone in the company’s journey. The LightSpeed LS12 is expected to continue this momentum, offering exclusivity and performance to riders around the world.
