Tech Langen Two Stroke - a brand new 2 stroke bike
Two-stroke engines have been buried a thousand times, but there was always an enthusiastic genius who came up with something unusual that could have a place on the market. This time Langen Motors, founded by Chris Ratcliffe 4 yeas ago.
This young company just presented their first bike, called simply Two Stroke These motorcycles are made with classic style and noble simplicity. Only one hundred copies of the extremely expensive and amazingly light Two Stroke will be produced. The bike is powered - as its name suggests - by a 249 cc, two-stroke V engine. The engine itself was built in the company's workshop in Wigan, and this time the word construction is really appropriate, since the frame and many other parts were produced using classic methods and avoided the use of machines whenever possible.
The 125 kilos ready-to-go weight and 75 horsepower sounds good, right? Well, you'd pay about $35,000 to get one in case there is any of the 100 machines still to be sold..
