Arch Motorcycles’ second model, the 1S, is now available for pre-order. The sister model of the KRGT-1 focuses more on sportiness.
The new Arch 1S was already exhibited as a prototype at EICMA in 2017 and is now going on sale. The steel frame with aluminum plates and also the single-sided swingarm have made it into series production. The swingarm is made of billet aluminum and is equipped with titanium axle adjusters. The frame of the KRGT-1 has been modified, resulting in a higher seating position. Together with the centrally mounted footpegs and the flat handlebars, the result is a much sportier riding position.
Damping is with components from Öhlins, which are fully adjustable. Braking is at the front via two 6-piston monoblocks from ISR. The ABS comes from Bosch. The 17-inch carbon rims come from BST and were covered with Michelin Power RS. Sizes chosen are 120/70 ZR17 front and 240/45 ZR17 rear. The tank/airbox combo was also made of carbon.
The 2,032cc S&S Cycle V-twin engine produces 124 hp and 156 Nm. The new Arch 1S tips the scales at 255 kg. In terms of price, it is priced at 128,000 US dollars.
Gard Hollinger, Co-Founder and Design Director of ARCH Motorcycle said, “We are very excited to officially introduce the new ARCH 1s. We believe that with the help of our entire team and many great partners, we have created something truly special for riders and we are proud to finally see it on the road.
The 1s beautifully combines the elegance of an American cruiser with the performance of a race car – a concept we have worked to design, build, test, refine and implement since it was first unveiled. I am proud and honored to have the opportunity to share the new 1s model with the world”
ARCH co-founder Keanu Reeves: “We just celebrated our 10th anniversary last year, and yet it seems like only yesterday that I had the idea to start a motorcycle company with Gard
It’s incredible to see how far we’ve come in such a short time – from the KRGT-1, which was so well received, to the new 1s as our second model. And that’s a real testament to our talented design and build teams and their ability to produce something that meets ARCH’s ambitions in terms of architecture, style, elegance and overall experience of a motorcycle company”
