The Modern Motorcycle Company + YAMAHA

The Modern Motor Cycle Company

We set out to recapture a sense of motorcycling that seems to have faded in recent years. By the mid 20th Century, motorcycles had evolved to a point where they were reliable and functional, but still humble and elegant. They were machines for easy and stylish transportation, made of honest materials with a spirit of simplicity and ingenuity. Since then motorcycles have become increasingly plastic, angular, over-decorated and over-engineered.

Using mostly '60s and '70s Japanese motorcycles in need of TLC, we strip all unnecessary components, repair, rebuild, modify and customise, making each bike individual.

Christian Condo, proprietor of the Modern Motor Cycle Company, spent seven years as an automotive mechanic and five years as an industrial designer. The motorcycle bug wouldn't leave him though, and MMCC was born to bring these fields together.

The Modern Motor Cycle Company

Nos dispusimos a recuperar el sentido de las motos que parece haberse desvanecido en los últimos años. A mediados del siglo XX, las motocicletas habian evolucionado hasta un punto en el que eran fiables y practicas, pero todavia sencillas y elegantes. Eran máquinas para el transporte fácil y con estilo, hechas con materiales honestos y un espíritu de sencillez e ingenio. Desde entonces, las motocicletas se han vuelto cada vez más de plástico, llenas de aristas, muy decoradas  y tecnificadas exageradamente.


Utilizamos generalmente motos japonesas de los años 60 y 70, les despejamos de todos los componentes innecesarios, se reparan, reconstruyen, modifican y personalizan, lo que hace cada moto personal.


Christian Condo, propietario de The Modern Motor Cycle Company, pasó siete años como mecánico de automoción y cinco años como diseñador industrial.
