When Keanu Reeves makes his motorcycles purr with Akrapovič

The world of bespoke motorcycles has just experienced a shock alliance: ARCH Motorcycle, the brand founded by actor Keanu Reeves and designer Gard Hollinger, has joined forces with Akrapovič, the Slovenian giant of high-performance exhaust systems.

A marriage of passion and excellence

This partnership is more than just a business collaboration. It's a genuine encounter between two companies driven by the same passion: to push back the boundaries of innovation and performance.

As Davorin Dobočnik, CEO of Akrapovič points out: This is a partnership that transcends business it's the story of two passionate companies with an incredible history of innovation, working together with the common goal of inspiring users.

The KRGT-1, the first beneficiary of this alliance

The first model to benefit from this exceptional collaboration is the ARCH KRGT-1, a muscular, racy cruiser. Akrapovič has designed a lightweight, high-performance titanium exhaust system especially for it. True to its reputation, the Slovenian manufacturer has taken care of every detail, offering different finishing options for the hexagonal muffler, including carbon fiber, and a high-end, hand-crafted carbon fiber tip.

The unique sound of Akrapovič

Beyond aesthetics and performance, it was the inimitable sound of Akrapovič exhausts that won ARCH Motorcycle over. It was a great pleasure to work with their skilled team and see first-hand how passion shines through their entire organization. says Gard Hollinger.

A collaboration that promises surprises

The exhaust system developed for the KRGT-1 is just the beginning of a long series. Akrapovič and ARCH Motorcycle have already announced that other motorcycle models and exhaust systems will see the light of day as part of this partnership.

Akrapovič, a global benchmark

Founded 34 years ago by former racing driver Igor Akrapovič, the Slovenian company has established itself as a world leader in high-performance exhaust systems. Its track record speaks for itself: 190 world championship titles in motor sport, both two- and four-wheeled, have been won with Akrapovič exhausts.

ARCH Motorcycle, the art of custom motorcycling

Founded in 2011 by Keanu Reeves and Gard Hollinger, ARCH Motorcycle is on a mission to reinvent the American motorcycle. Each model is unique, tailor-made to meet the requirements and tastes of its owner.

This partnership between Akrapovič and ARCH Motorcycle is the meeting of two worlds of excellence, where passion for motorcycling meets innovation and performance. There's no doubt that this alliance will give birth to exceptional creations that will delight custom motorcycle enthusiasts.
