Hey Will, please pardon if you're actually cool. I can't remember who is and isn't anymore... if you'd preface the post with some context other than "very cool." it'd be helpful. |

It's a Jay Leno's Garage piece with Keanu Reeves and Gard Hollinger's Arch Motorcycles. ($80K bikes) They claim they are selling well but don't make a fortune at that price. Talk of all the governmental headaches getting approvals etc. Show a prototype where they have gone from a 30 degree rake to a 24 degree, put rearsets and a single sided swingarm on it. |

If i'm mistaken (sniff), I apologise (sniff), but I think a lesson to be learn't here is (touch your face, sniff) - do not (sniff, touch your face) go on camera when you have obviously just put a large hit of coke up your nose (sniff, touch my face, sniff). |

LOL, What I thought was cool was the bikes, but what I found more interesting was the conversation about how hard it is to be building motorcycles in the US, not to mention in the over regulated state of California. A multi millionaire movie star coked up, now that is cool! (Message edited by willmrx on April 05, 2017) (Message edited by willmrx on April 05, 2017) |

and I was starting to wonder if I was thinking too weird for letting the "sniff" bother me. What the hell? Put a wind sock on it? Too much gain on the mic? |

600 lb. bike "Leno...stable, you sit in it, think the corner and it does it, ..." With the exception of the weight of the ARCH, sounds just like my 21 year old S2-T. Lost some respect here for Leno's garage . Just shows you Leno is mostly into four-wheel exotics. Too bad for him. |

80 grand? Just because it's "handmade"? My 1190RS is handmade too and it will spank an ARCH for a quarter of the price.... |

and Leno looked like he just got out of bed. I know he's going for the casual/mechanical look but wow. |

Seen & spoke to Leno many times at the Rock Store. He always looks like that; it's his uniform. |

Yeah, I've seen several episodes of his show. I was meaning his hair and demeanor in particular. Not too sparkly. Like he just got done partying all night. |

If I knew how many negative comments that this post would have generated, I would never had posted it. WTF! It just video about a motorcycle company trying to get a foot hold in this (F)ed up economy. Why all the hate? Jesus Christ! |

Will, dang man, don't let the beeyotches (myself included) get ya down! It's just human nature. I try to be positive as much as possible, but hey. If your weather is as good as mine, get out and do a ride! (I got waaay too many honeydo's in front of me for the first part of the week...) |

Don't worry about it . . . First . . that's not a motorcycle company, that's somebody's hobby. I am the one who said . . .back in 1997 "once you have a really good motorcycle with the bugs worked out you are 3% of the way to having a MOTORCYCLE COMPANY". None of the comments were directed at you. Frankly . . I was kinda laughing at how they displayed them about like a Macy's window . . making folks believed Leno owned or had bought one. But . . they are always fun to watch. |
