Grant Langston (born June 17, 1982 in Durban, South Africa), is a former Grand Prix motocross world champion.
Langston began competing in the world championships in 1998, and by 2000, he had won the F.I.M. 125cc world championship as a member of the KTM factory racing team.[1] He moved to the United States in 2001 to compete in the A.M.A. national championships, winning the 2003 A.M.A 125cc outdoor title. He also won A.M.A 125 supercross championships in 2005 and 2006. In 2007, Langston won the A.M.A. national championship in the Motocross Class for 450cc machines, riding for Yamaha. Langston's racing career was cut short following a crash which created vision problems for him for sometime. He made an attempt to return to the sport, but it was short lived. Grant owns a large multi-line motorcycle dealership in Perris, California.
