A new bike company called Arch Motorcycles has just been launched. The founders are Gard Hollinger and actor Keanu Reeves a.k.a. Neo from The Matrix.

Their first creation is a 244kg (538lb), chopper-style model that goes by the name KRGT-1. It uses a 2,032cc V-twin engine from S&S to produce 122 hp. Ohlins forks and BST wheels complete the package. Pricing is set at $78,000 USD.

Keanu Reeves is an avid motorcycle enthusiast. His garage is full of Kawasakis, BMWs, Harley-Davidsons, Guzzis, Suzukis and Nortons (his favourite). After a failed attempt to customize one of his bikes, Reeves called on Hollinger and they both worked on the KRGT-1 project.

Any takers?
