KR GT-1 Prototype - The Arch Motorcycle Co.
The KR GT-1 Prototype is the brainchild of Keanu Reeves and Gard Hollinger, they began collaborating on a custom bike for Keanu back in 2007 and over time it evolved from a one-off design to a whole new motorcycle company now called – The Arch Motorcycle Company.
The KR GT-1 Prototype is based on Keanu’s 2005 Harley-Davidson Dyna Wide Glide although it’s fairly clear that Hollinger has been hard at work creating an all new triple tree, fuel tank, rear cowling, seat, foot controls, frame and exhaust system. The frame is a fairly remarkable work of engineering, it’s a sport bike derived mono-shock with a floating swing arm coupled to a CNC milled aluminium subframe.

Human Motorcycles
San Diego-based i.d.e.a. advertising agency created this advertising campaign for the Progressive International Motorcycle Shows 13 city nationwide show tour. The agency worked with professional San-Francisco-based Body Painter Trina Merry and a group of highly flexible and naked uninhibited models painted such a way that their bodies mimic motorcycle parts.

The Legends Bike
An original right down to its one-of-a-kind autographed exterior, the Legends Bike was initially built for Colorado Avalanche player Scott Parker. An engineering masterpiece from the Echelon Motorcycle Company and Mike Learn, Colorado's custom paint pro, this custom build motorcycle was priced around $100K but the value skyrocketed once the 40 legendary athletes inked its finish.
