About Lexmoto

Country of Origin: United Kingdom
Founder: Llexeter Ltd.
Best Known For: Affordable 50–300 cc scooters and motorcycles with strong UK parts/dealer support

Company History

Lexmoto grew quickly by pairing globally manufactured small-capacity platforms with UK-focused support: clear English documentation, ready spares, and a dealer network that understands first-time riders. The brand’s range—twist-and-go scooters, 125 cc commuters, and approachable 300s—aims at value without chaos, adding ABS/CBS, EFI, LED lighting, and warranty processes that keep ownership stress low. Styling leans modern and tidy; ergonomics are friendly for daily commuting and delivery work. Crucially, Llexeter invests in parts logistics and tech training, turning budget hardware into dependable appliances and lowering total cost of ownership relative to used alternatives of uncertain provenance. As licensing and insurance steer many UK purchases, Lexmoto’s proposition—new-bike reliability at approachable finance—has been compelling for students, A1 riders, and couriers. Historically, Lexmoto represents the maturing of the distributor-brand model done right: honest specs, continuous QC improvement, and aftersales that earns repeat customers. For many, a Lexmoto is the first set of keys that makes two wheels practical—shortening commutes, creating income opportunities, and opening weekend routes beyond the bus map.
