ARCH KRGT-1 Ride

[@Carlos-qk2vi]

It may not be my style of bike but - it would be churlish to not appreciate the craftsmanship that's gone into its hand-made manufacture; hats off to ARCH!

[@carlosandleon]

to be fair it looks like it doesn't know what it wants to be. Even the V-Max as a muscle bike performance cruiser still has more identitt as a cruiser than this bike. Or the diavel still sits well into the power cruiser segment. The Arch looks like a sportbike with forward pegs. Personally I find it unattractive

[@Darkest_Soul_187]

@@carlosandleon yeah but I'm pretty sure you can change it to mid controlls if you want

[@heithwatkins]

When I get the money. I will buy this exact motorcycle. It's a rolling work of art. Mr. Reeves has done a fantastic job. God bless ARCH!

[@Darkest_Soul_187]

It's not THAT impressive to create a bike for 80 000€. Impressive would be creating a bike like this for 15-18k

[@Josh-mk7ok]

@@Darkest_Soul_187 lmao you’re not selling a bike with this much quality and attention to detail for 18-20k. It’s damn impressive even at 80k

Tell Keannu to come over and buy the Norton name...

Keanu should have stuck with the Norton Commando, which was his personal bike and he rode with great skill in “My Own Private Idaho.”

[@markusantonio4866]

I was introduced to Norton by Keanu around 30 years ago. Seeing him around on his 750, or 850 I believe in magazines?

[@martybartfast]

You didn't once mention Keanu Reeves. Well done! 😄 🏍

[@dafalzonAUS]

You just did😀!

[@justcyleong]

KR means Keanu Reeves.

[@edmaluf]

The "1" in the name means "for the 1%"

[@Aint1S]

85k broken down into 6 or 7 years isn't that bad when you consider the costs of procuring the raw materials. Not to mention the milling time and the price of the engine as well as other parts. I cannot afford one, but I could achieve the goal if I did want one. Bright side, the resale value would be absolutely perfect to recoup a majority of your investment. And... No idiot would be able to do the old gas tank dent!

[@needmetal3221]

They did a good job. Dont knock it cuz you can't afford it. I'm not. Lol

[@remigusker6024]

I don't knock it because I can't afford it, I knock it because it's fugly and hilariously over priced for what it delivers. I understand the price is more for the workmanship than the specs, but oof it's still not really good value even compared to other boutique vehicles or limited production models.

[@cpuuk]

Why does this feel like an exact re-run of last years review, right down to chat about the tank?

[@Themayseffect]

Because it is lol. They didn't really change anything.

[@steveh7108]

Just more sucking up. A paid review of an overpriced bike. You would need to have a ton of disposable money just to consider this bike so right now I will stick to the hundreds of other bikes out there that are a fraction of the price and probably much better and much more reliable. In the meantime I would really love to see an honest independent genuine review of this bike.

[@leward]

Would be nice if they can make a production model to compete with the Diavel, Rocket 3, and FXDR.

[@andycombo]

leward18 Agree. But as Dynasport happy owner I real suggest them to make central footpegs...

[@leward]

Andrea Colombo same here, FXDLS. I think they do offer optional mid controls, but all the review videos only show the forwards.

[@srhintz]

@@andycombo They machine gas tanks and swingarms out of solid billet and charge the better part of $100 grand and you don't think you can get mids?

[@andycombo]

Road Toad I think so, but I never see an Arch with “mids” and I really don’t understand why... Front controls are so dumb to me on a sporty bike like this.

[@bigsandwich1238]

People hating on it because there are decent bikes out there for way cheaper. Yes there are. But arch customizes the bike to fit the customers body and ergonomics to make it as comfortable and fun to ride as possible plus bespoke choices on detail. They're not going after the same customers as harley, suzuki, yamaha etc. Those brands pump out many bikes that are good and are cheap. Arch makes bikes custom to each individual. That's why it costs more obviously.

[@anujyadav.1014]

What is this!! ?? Same video from Bennetts bike 🙄🙄

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

Chad is freelance and he did this for both of us, it happens sometimes for one off trips like this.

[@benstech726]

It is, and I prefer this one. The other one started with a lot of music and little bike demo. This one started off with the roar of the engine... I had to stick around

[@dayleashleynolasco5765]

I love everything about the Arch Motorcycle is doing. The bikes are truly done with heart. Although, the only problem I see here is the classic round shape of the headlight. It could have been look fiercer if they chose a vertical diamond shape that matches the shape of the dashboard cover. Aside from that its perfect. 👌

[@HappyPappynKatyTX]

Arch motorcycles are amazing. I love them. I dream of owning one. Fact is, they are made specifically for the rich. Doctors, lawyers, business owners, drug dealers (king pins). They are not for the average Joe. I guess I can dream.............. dream on

[@charlespayne2002]

You say that.. but "regular Joes" don't bat an eye at dropping 80k on a bullshit pickup truck or bass boat. Get your credit together and call the man. If you want it. Go get it.

[@LukeDodge916]

I REALLY like what Arch are doing, and I absolutely want to ride this bike. But I think it'd be a bit more enjoyable with mid-mount pegs rather than forward mounts... Cant wait to ride one.

[@russellhueners8499]

Forward controls deal breaker

Such an amazing machine. A true work of art. I would love to own one some day, But I being poor, have only my dreams.

[@nioze9776]

Whats the point? All that milling and time for single pieces? Does it perform better than a cast or forget/welded piece? A lot of waste just for the look ... I really like that they started a bussiness and all and that they want to produce top quality bikes but that doesnt seems like a clever way to engineer a bike ...

[@MC-Racing]

yeah agreed, machined parts can be lighter or stonger, but if its worth the waste, i don't know :-)

[@qislegit.donttrustthemedia6232]

They get to then sell their bikes for $80k....totally worth it for them! The CNC machine and a single welder would be payed for with each bike sold! Lol

[@qislegit.donttrustthemedia6232]

You could almost buy 3 Ducati V4s for the price of one of these! Which I totally would if it were easier to maintain the bike by myself. $30k for the bike and then a quarter or more of that every few years through a certified Ducati maintenance crew....no thanks. Lol

[@nioze9776]

listepikster for that pricetag i would prefer 5 smaller cnc machined pieces welded together with a big 3D printed "mainpiece" ... i aleays have to think about what my lecturer once sad: Brain is replaced by a lot material ...

These are meant for loaded people that want something unique. Even if I had the money I certainly wouldn't buy one. Us just regular people aren't the target for these luxury items.

[@MrHugawa]

not overpriced if they sell

[@charlie-tangomotors2516]

Not overpriced. Figure how much time and effort went into building these bikes. The design, engineering, equipment, prototyping, and manufacturing. I mean, people complain about chinese stuff being junk but they still buy it because its cheap. They use it for a day and it breaks...because its cheap. Here you have a highly handcrafted machine that the attention to detail was like no other since they aren't mass produced...and people complain they are overpriced. How much would someone have to pay you, per hour, to design, cnc, and assemble, test, and QC a bike? Probably the same rate they charge. Overpriced? A completely custom motorcycle designed from the ground up by a celebrity. Nope.

[@aluisious]

People buy handbags that cost more than this.

I wonder if Arch can fill the gap of Harley? Arch is what Harley should have evolved into but never didn If Harley can get 30-40,000 for upper end models or a CVO The Arch should be able to be produced for around 40,000 if they had more tooling and production?

[@bigred8438]

The rake and trail seem extreme for a bike that seems to handle well. And that swing arm seems endless. I can see why you may have doubts about it handling ability after looking at how long it is. In the wash up it is typically an excessive American project. It seems as though the company is trying to replicate the production and quality methods of Crocker, and we know what happened to them. I guess if these become collectors items in 50 years, that wouldn't be such a bad effort.

[@coolkatz9012]

Get a 1200 hammer...upgrade breaks suspension...Boom.

[@BarryMDHo]

Obviously a huge accomplishment becoming an actual bona fide motorcycle manufacturer, never mind having a product that actually works well. Kudos. So function appears to be there, now how about form? The components parts apparent top notch quality, may not quite come together as a whole deserving of said parts and there's the rub. Hard not to make comparisons to Confederate Motorcycles, where although the historic build quality/dependability was an issue, they certainly had the the unique stand out "wow factor" which somewhat validated the price tag. Arch are very good looking, quality component, well performing motorcycles, and deserve respect, but they need a bit more distinctive and unique styling. Having said that, if one has the money, they likely are getting good value for it in any case. I would make a humble suggestion to Arch however, consider having Keanu host one or two rides per year, for owners only. Yes, the product is it's own reward for buying, but business is business and Keanu has such a great public presence and image, so why not leverage that a bit more towards exclusive ownership experiences. I imagine that would be rewarding experience both ways, for Keanu and his team, and for the bike owners.
