Keanu Reeves and partner Gard Hollinger made the trip to the EICMA trade show in Milan to introduce 3 new motorcycles to their vision of motorcycle refinement. Since Arch Motorcycle was created in 2007, they have created and built (starting in 2015) different versions of their KRGT-1 model a 124″ (2032 cc) S&S performance cruiser with an optional custom fit and finish offered to each client. This week in Milan they resent a newest refined version of the KRGT-1 with ergonomic bodywork enhancements, better front suspension, upgraded brakes with optional ABS and EURO 4 emissions compliance. At a price of around $78,000 and up for rich and discerning riders….
The second launch is for Arch’s 1st production single sided swingarm model. It offers a more aggressive riding position. 125″ S&S V-Twin engine with CNC machined aluminum back-bone and subframe, a carbon fiber fuel tank and 7-spoke design carbon fiber wheels. Pricing to be announced in January.
And if you can afford even more engineering artistry for the price of a very luxury sedan or sport car, you can be one of the 23 owners of a 143″ S&S Engine Arch Method 143 concept motorcycle featuring a carbon fiber mono-cell chassis, a Arch designed Suter Industries manufactured CNC machined aluminum single-sided swingarm with carbon fiber cover, an aluminum bodywork, proprietary Ohlins front end, carbon turbine wheels, Moto GP inspired carbon fiber exhaust, etc. Arch Motorcycle.

Great looking bikes. Well done.
Like. Too expensive for me.
a different world. high-end machinary. a ferrari of bikes. sorta. (a nice short 4 min video at wired magazine.)
I prefer my 401K Nestingegg.
Too much for any bike.
It’s the first bike they have built that I would like to have. Nice job.
Nice looking bike, out of my league!
When looking at the bike pics it almost looks like they were Photoshopped and stretched out a little too much to create an overly long wheelbase.
I like. They’ll be snapped up, regardless of the price tag.
Better buy two.
Ahhhhh….. No!
Proof the Motus MST-R is a bargain.
Best in Class.
Are you kidding me. Only in the Matrix would I pay $78K for that.
That bike should have an inline four mounted lengthwise.
A fine set of scooters. I realize they have stuck a lot of money into limited production parts, which jacks the cost out of reach for most riders, but I like where they are going with this. Garage builders now have some new inspiration to build $3,000 bikes that resemble the $80,000 bikes Arch is selling to untalented, insecure, inexperienced white-collar executive first time riders.
Beautiful bikes, I wish them much success.
Finally. An affordable, simple, entry level beginners bike to bring new riders to the sport!
What Waldo said!
Niiiiiiice! peace
All looks fine until you see that massive wheelbase and there’s the main problem with big twin sports bikes.
having fun with all that movie money! give me the 143″
too stretched. too expensive.
Excellent job guys!
I’ll bet he’ll sell every one built.
BTW, 125 cu in eaquals about 2050 cc!
Think it has grunt?
I like it! It’s special like a Ring Brothers car, but with two wheels. Yes it’s for a few well-heeled bikers, but it’s worth to them more than a Ferrari or Porsche or Mercedes.
I think it’s perfect and would not change a thing.
Gard knows what he’s doing…….
