Arch 1s Review
"A serious motorcycle wearing a showpiece reputation it doesn't deserve."
Used Buyer Review
The Arch 1S is genuinely one of the most visceral, purposeful custom-production bikes you can throw a leg over. Keanu and Gard Hollinger built something that rides as sharp as it looks — the 124ci S&S motor pulls hard and honest, the chassis geometry feels planted through sweepers, and every control falls to hand like it was fitted to you specifically. It's not a poseur bike despite what the celebrity connection might suggest. That said, buying one used requires homework. Parts support is thin on the ground — Arch isn't Harley-Davidson, and lead times on components can stretch painfully. Inspect the frame welds obsessively, check service history exists, and verify the electronics haven't been fiddled with. Previous owners sometimes modify these and that's rarely an improvement. Low mileage examples are common because many buyers treated them as art installations rather than motorcycles. Plan to spend $85K-$130K for a clean used example. That's serious money. But if you're genuinely riding it rather than photographing it, the experience justifies every dollar.
