neo

A ground up build with 190mm broad rear tyre and almost every part other than the engine custom hand built, engraved manually and brass plated. 

A project that took a year to complete, with hundreds of man-hours of intense labor, innumerable sleepless nights and so many aspirations, achievements, misses, failures, moments of exhilaration, exhaustion, discovery and disappointments – this project is no less than a Taj Mahal of a creation for me.

I may not be eloquent enough with words to be able to express how much this project means to me. Pursued with an almost fanatic purism in quality and aesthetics, this project is the result as well as the benchmark of my capabilities at its best. I can safely say that if this isn’t good enough then perhaps I am not good enough. I hope I am not getting too carried away with emotions.

So much of me is intertwined with this project that I find it hard to describe it, with detachment, as just a product. I have gone through a lot of labor and pain to deliver this. My fingers have felt every inch of this machine; I have every bit of the engraving – every motif and every stroke in mind, deeply engraved.

Neo has been created with such intense passion and devotion that I feel like having attained a sense of Nirvana with respect to this project and having reached a stage over and beyond an artist’s usual anxiety of being accepted and appreciated. I hope I am not being arrogant here. It is just an outpour of feelings without a filter. I still hope that all find it as special as it is to me.

mi'raj

Mi’raj, engraved and electroplated in an antique silver finish. The theme is mythological – Prophet Mohammed’s journey from a mosque to the heavens and all the angels he meets on the way.
The engraving is done manually and the design drawn freehand on a custom made fuel tank. Mi’raj is a single seater bobber with a custom fitted 130mm rear tyre and a tyre hugging fender.

Black bob series

Black Bob is hands down the bestseller at MCBC Studio. With over 100 repeat orders on this simple concept based specifically on a Thunderbird, this design has come a long way. This is one of the pocket friendly concepts that made MCBC Studio what it is today.

sepoy series

Sepoy series, especially Sepoy Turbo, is yet another concept by MCBC Studio that has seen many repeat orders with interesting variations. The Battle Green with Matt Black and touches of Gold here and there makes it an irresistible combination and is the essence of the Sepoy series.

shivaya

Shivaya is a two wheeled version of an ode to Lord Shiva. The intricate engraving on the fuel tank panel is more than just a random engraving design. It is meant to carry a meaning. It depicts the two worlds – Heaven and Earth (separated by a band of Damrus in the design). The floral pattern to the south show the flora of Earth and above, cosmic rays emanate from the centre of the heaven (the fuel cap). The Trishool is shown to be a part of both worlds. There are many smaller and significant details in the engraving that are best left unexplained and left to the audience to notice and figure out.

The main attraction of this motorcycle is the manual engraving on it. This has been done absolutely free-hand. It has an extended wheelbase (both at front and rear suspension). The engraved panels and even the screws holding it have been plated in Antique Silver finish. All design based work on this project have been handcrafted – from the fabricated body parts to the hand-stitched seat. 

zed

Zed, perhaps India’s first custom motorcycle with a diplomatic (Jordanian embassy) number, built for a Jordanian diplomat, a good friend and our favorite customer Mr. Zaidbarakati alias Zed!

A random, abstract, multi-colored, eclectic paintjob, the off-center headlight, Patina finished raw looking parts and many more features make this tracker a crude bad-ass ride.

droid

A tracker with a futuristic feel to it, Droid has got a good deal of attention and appreciation from leading blogs and enthusiasts. This build has been made with a form-follows-function approach.

viking

Viking is a heavy duty bobber with a unique shape for a fuel tank. It has a 140mm rear tyre and a lean scrambler seat.

centennial

A build to commemorate our 100th project, aptly named and built with a lot of love. It is essentially a chopper with front fork extension, swingarm extension, ahand crafted body and a two tone Paisley paintjob.

42

A cafe racer with a 3 tone paintjob, detachable rear seat cowl and more details. 

SEER

A touring chopper with handcrafted parts and selective placement of engraving clubbed with a Silver finish plating.

memento

A two tone painted custom motorcycle loaded with cool accessories and features…

the denim bike

The whackiest concept we have ever come up with – a denim wrapped motorcycle! Many have accused this to be a product of intoxicating substances… well… we would neither confirm nor deny that!!

By the way, for those who care, the donor bike is a Yamaha FZ and the body beneath the denim is all fibre glass. It was our first tryst with fiber glass too.

BULLET DESIGNS

A glimpse of the pocket friendly designs we can make on a RE Bullet (Standard/Electra/Classic etc.) without losing the essence of the originality of the good old Bullet motorcycle and giving an all new look and a revamp at the same time.

A budget customization package exclusively for Bajaj Avengers…
