Arch Motorcycles

These things are designed and built for the uber-rich. Performance has nothing to do with their buying decisions. If they wanted performance they could well afford to buy MotoGP bikes. Its about exclusivity and conspicuous consumption. We mere mortals will never be able to relate to these things. Some of them sure are purty tho.

What can I say? I like different visions on standard items, especially when it looks industrial.
 
Dang, both of those things are hideous. I got a 96 cu. in. V twin pumping 120hp for under 10K and I could push it another 20hp, if thought it wouldn't eat itself. Its fun and for a Vtwin it runs like a scalded cat, but it's still not as fun the my Rocket.

For 78K I would buy a new rocket III touring, a Ducati Deivel and a Victory Cross Country Magnum

SO thats what it takes to spend that money but they arent very happy when these overpriced and underperforming egocycles dont deliver the promised performance to outshine the competition and the modded ROCKETS outdo them at every DYNO SHOOTOUT BUT I do love to see them at the the shows ,races and DYNO SHOOTOUTS

Well, not going to argue, if I were a big v-twin diehard I wouldn't be riding a Rocket.

Still, as V-twins go, the S&S are probably pretty decent.

They're used on the 3 Wheeler too.

Well, that's no doubt true - but he's also no doubt spent a great deal more than that setting up the company.

Well...Ya can't fix stupid! And, I know several extremely affluent people to whom "value" means everything when they part with the money.

What the saying? A fool and his money will soon be parted!
