ARCH KRGT-1: OVERALL
The updated ARCH KRGT-1 has a redesigned bodywork, upgraded suspension, ergonomic enhancements, updated braking components and safety features.
“We originally designed the KRGT-1 to realize the potential and push the boundaries of what an American V-twin motorcycle could offer,” says ARCH Motorcycle co-founder Gard Hollinger as quoted from ARCH Motorcycles.
“Our new KRGT-1 stays true to the original objective while further developing and refining the motorcycle’s design and performance elements to enhance the overall riding experience.”
ARCH KRGT-1: SPECIFICATIONS
The ARCH KRGT-1 comes with an EPA/CARB-certified 124ci S&S/ARCH engine with an in-house-designed downdraught induction system and proprietary K&N Engineering air filter. ARCH 2-into-1 stainless steel header system and Yoshimura carbon fibre muffler manage the bike’s exhaust flow. It is able to deliver a low-end torque from the first twist of the throttle.
“The new KRGT-1 delivers on ARCH Motorcycle’s ambition: a beautiful and extraordinary machine that handles like no other motorcycle. Through the curves, down the straights, planted, confident, comfortable, it’s an unsurpassed riding experience,” says ARCH Motorcycle co-founder Keanu Reeves.
“The focus on fit and finish, the detail, the execution, the exceptional quality. How the bike is made defines ARCH.”
The new billet aluminium swingarm is very much race-inspired. It improves rigidity and reduces unsprung weight in order to provide better handling. The bike features a unique Öhlins fully adjustable shock absorber. It has larger diameter 48mm Öhlins front forks that have NIX technology.
The bike also comes with an anti-lock braking system (ABS). The Bosch-developed ABS improves braking performance, stability and safety. The KRGT-1 has updated hand and foot controls, including its new Magura clutch and front brake assemblies. The upgrades provide for better performance, comfort and tactility.
