Craftsmanship, passion and two wheels
Passion that flows in the blood
Some passions are not chosen, they are inherited. Mig never knew his grandfather, but he knew that two wheels were part of his family. His mother often told him about how she rode the motorbike for miles to reach the beach house, with his father as a passenger. Maybe it was this, or maybe it was the desire to build something with his own hands: at five years old, when for Christmas he received a toy toolbox, he got angry. He wanted real ones. And so his story began.
The Story of Mig's Moto Custom
The beginnings were in the garage at home, with a friend and his mechanic brother. The first project? A 50cc scooter transformed into Kawasaki green without headlights. The second, a Gilera 125 2T track bike, for which Andrea built his first frame to make it a two-seater. From there, the path was marked.
In 2012, Mig bought his first Monster 600. He paid 700 euros for it, but it was a disaster: a mix of parts taken here and there, light years away from the bike of his dreams.
He decided to fix it himself, asking for help from some mechanic friends, but he was never satisfied. So, he started looking for specialized Ducati workshops for advice. It was then that, tired of his job as a waiter, he offered to be an apprentice in one of those workshops. They took him on, and from that moment he learned the trade from those who had been doing it for years.
The real turning point came after an accident on the highway. He was without a bike for six months and decided that when he got back on the bike, he would build something serious and safe. From that moment on, customization was no longer just a hobby, but his mission.
Style and Philosophy
Three words describe his style: modern but with a vintage touch, sporty and technically refined.
Every motorcycle he makes has a common thread that doesn't depend on the details, but on the customer's vision.
Andrea doesn't distort ideas, he guides them towards perfection, taking care of every aspect: from painting to personalized details, up to the creation of unique tanks. His motto? "Everything can be made".
Awards and Successes
The quality of his work has been recognized at the most important industry events. At MotoDays in Rome he won first place with a motorcycle made entirely of scrap parts, proving that design beats budget and impressing designers and engineers with his creations. At EICMA 2024 he won second place with a Honda CL500 made for Honda Italia Napoli.
A workshop that is a meeting point
Mig's Moto Custom is not just a workshop, but a meeting point for enthusiasts. Many customers become friends and often stop by just for a coffee and a chat about motorcycles. The atmosphere is welcoming:
Andrea welcomes everyone with a smile, listens to their ideas and explains every detail of his work with passion.
Mig: Motorcycles, Travel and Art
Andrea is always the same, inside and outside the workshop. He loves to travel with his partner and a backpack, discovering new cultures. Museums are another passion of his: for him, understanding art in all its forms helps to better understand his work. And then there is his Monster 600: always and forever his favorite bike.
Oh, and if you’re wondering who his favorite superhero is, the answer is easy: Iron Man . After all, who better than a genius who builds his own creations with dedication and ingenuity?
