In this event, there will be two winners - one for aesthetics, and the other for outright straight-line performance on the drag strip

Built by Neev Motorcycles, the ‘Warlord’ is a custom cafe racer with some really cool upgrades. They’re seemingly Mad Max-inspired, but in a more elegant, clean-looking package.

The ‘Obsidian’ by Homebound Customs is an aggressive streetfighter and comes with upgrades like an inverted fork, custom spoke wheels, super-short subframe & an underseat exhaust

VP Designs showcased ‘The Edgy Affair’, an urban brawler. The wheels look exquisite, and the exhaust is very Ducati-like. That tiny pillion seat is clearly meant to be a joke!

‘Urumi’, named after the iconic flexible sword, looks purpose-built for the drag strip. Just look at the gorgeous wheels! The meticulously designed custom swingarm is a work of pure art.

The ‘Vayuputra’ by TNT motorcycles is an aerodynamic faired cafe racer that takes its name very seriously. The bare-minimum seat padding shows that this bike is all business

Autologue Design’s creation, the ‘Guerrilla 450 ALX’, is by far the coolest bike at the event in our opinion. Johnny Silverhand would sure love this one!

‘Hit & Run’ by Buraq Motorcycles is a purpose-built dragster. It’s all about lightness (30kg lighter) & brute straight-line power, thanks to the inverted fork, tuned ECU and carbon fibre bits.

Maratha Motorcycles showcased their ‘Gravity’, a unique modified motorcycle with hubless wheels at both ends. Looks very hole-some (geddit?)!

‘Gung-Ho’ by Bombay Custom Works, is a supermoto. It’s the ultimate form of the Guerrilla - a machine that’s specifically designed to rule the streets

At the Motoverse 2025, we saw some really cool custom bikes built using the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 as the base. From a futuristic-looking speed machine to a supermoto, the list is quite interesting.
