History

The Lotus C-01 is a unique motorcycle produced by Lotus Motorcycles, a subsidiary of the British car manufacturer, Lotus Cars. The C-01 was designed by Daniel Simon, a former designer for Bugatti and creator of the Tron Legacy Light Cycle. 

The Lotus C-01 features a distinctive design that combines modern technology with classic styling. The motorcycle is powered by a 1,195 cc V-twin engine that produces around 200 horsepower, giving it exceptional performance and speed. 

The C-01‘s frame is made of carbon fiber, which helps to keep the bike lightweight and responsive. It also features a unique single-sided swingarm that adds to its aesthetic appeal. The bike‘s suspension is made up of high-end components from Ohlins, Brembo, and others, which give it excellent handling and control. 

The Lotus C-01 was produced in limited quantities, with only 100 bikes being built.
