The philosophy that has led to the design of the Auto Fabrica Type 6, is to maintain a minimalist look and to remove unnecessary clutter. This in turn gets the focus on the pure machinery and the intricate elements of design that convert the motorcycle into a piece of art… something very apparent with their latest build, a beautiful Yamaha XS650.

Based on the Yamaha XS650 which was found lying in a barn somewhere in Cornwall, the machine builds on the Japanese design theory, Kanso – which is basically the ideology of simplicity. Design-wise, the machine has a bespoke appeal with handmade body parts out of brushed aluminium. The bodywork has a distinct minimalist appeal, with the long fuel tank design that is meticulously integrated with the single flat seat. The exhausts are a pair of custom made stainless steel units while the motorcycle sits on 19-inch spoked rims at the front and 18-inch alloy wheels at the rear.

Auto Fabrica is a design company based out of Essex, England. The design language that is followed by the owner, Bujar Muharremi is to reduce motorcycles to their bare minimum to get the entire focus on the design and intricate fabrication of hand beaten metal parts.
