Arch Method 143
The Arch Method 143 was introduced in 2016 by Arch Motorcycle, the company co-founded by actor Keanu Reeves and master builder Gard Hollinger. It was designed as a high-performance, American-made custom motorcycle blending bespoke craftsmanship with modern engineering, following the success of their debut KRGT-1 model. The Method 143 is notable for its focus on aggressive performance and handling, featuring a mid-mounted engine configuration and a more track-oriented riding position compared to the KRGT-1.

What Buyers Should Know
S&S V-Twin Powerhouse
The Method 143 is powered by a 143 cubic inch (2,343cc) S&S V-Twin engine, making it one of the largest displacement production motorcycles available. S&S engines are known for strong long-term reliability when properly maintained.
Strong Resale Value
As a limited-production, celebrity-associated luxury motorcycle co-founded by Keanu Reeves, ARCH bikes retain value exceptionally well. Low production numbers mean used Method 143s rarely depreciate significantly compared to mass-market bikes.
Watch for Dealer Support
ARCH Motorcycle has very limited authorized service centers nationwide, which can make routine maintenance and warranty work challenging. Buyers should confirm proximity to a qualified service location before purchasing.
