Inside Keanu Reeve's Extravagant Motorcycle Collection

Keanu Reeves is no stranger to motorcycles. The actor has been riding ever since he was a kid, and now he's the owner of Arch Motorcycle Company, which makes custom-built bikes like the KRGT-1.

Of course, that also means he has an extensive collection of his own. Here are a few notable items from his motorcycle collection.


$8,200 – 1974 BMW R75/6

The R75/6 is powered by a 750cc air-cooled boxer twin engine that produces about 45 horsepower at 5500 rpm (which is pretty good considering this thing weighs over 520 kilograms). The bike boasts some heavy-duty parts like an oil cooler and large capacity drum brakes on both wheels. There’s also lots of chrome covering every part of this machine, making the ride look even cooler in-action (and protecting against corrosion).


$15,000 – 1973 Norton Commando 850 MK2A

The Norton Commando is a British motorcycle that was manufactured by Norton Motors Ltd from 1967 to 1977. The last of the Norton Commandos, the MK2A, was introduced in 1973 and produced until 1976 — but not before Reeves could buy one. It is the second motorcycle he ever purchased.

$18,000 – Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R

The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R is a superbike that was first produced in 2004 by Kawasaki Heavy Industries. It has the highest top speed of 194 mph and can get there in about 3.4 seconds, with an engine displacement of 1,000cc and six-speed transmission — perfect for an action star like Reeves.

It comes with Ohlins suspension at both ends, Brembo brakes up front and on the rear wheel too, BST carbon fiber wheels, and a Akrapovic titanium full exhaust system.


$19,000 – 2004 Ducati 998 Matrix Reloaded Edition

The Matrix Reloaded Edition Ducati 998 is a limited edition and was built by Ducati for the movie Matrix Reloaded. It has a red frame with gold accents and was designed to look like the motorcycles that were used in the big screen sequel. The bike also has some nice features, such as an upgraded exhaust system and a leather seat that is custom-made for Keanu Reeves' height.


The Matrix Reloaded Edition Ducati 998 is estimated to be worth $19,000 today. That is, if you can even get your hands on it.


$85,000 – 2019 ARCH KRGT-1

Built by Arch Motorcycles, the 2019 ARCH KRGT-1 is a flagship-model motorcycle that was designed by Keanu Reeves himself at Arch headquarters in California. The bike features a 4.5L V8 engine and can go up to 300 km/hr.

The KRGT-1 is made entirely of carbon fiber with a titanium exhaust system and comes with an onboard computer capable of monitoring performance stats such as speed, fuel consumption, and engine diagnostics remotely via Wi-Fi connection to a smartphone app. Buyers can also personalize a few features to their liking, including the motorcycle's seat shape and hand/foot controls.


Conclusion

Now, that's a lot of motorcycles, so we can only guess Keanu Reeves has an equally extravagant garage to match! His love for these vehicles truly shows through his work with Arch Motorcycles, though such a high level of quality certainly doesn't come at a low price.
