Keanu Reeves passion for motorcycles

Regardless of the bikes, I admire him for putting his money into his passion. You can see his enthusiasm and it's not just a movie star throwing cash at a whim.

As an aside Keanu is quite a discrete guy in what he does. A few years back when they were filming Matrix 1 (still don’t understand any of the Matrix) in Sydney he asked if he could make a very discrete low key visit to the very sick kiddies hospital in Sydney. He wanted absolutely no publicity around it. Why? Coz he overheard someone talking about one of the crew’s young niece who was in for chemo (12 years old) and was too sick to come onto the set to see him. No one spoke to him directly about it. So he went there to see her and the other kiddies. Absolutely made their day. He spent a couple of hours (of scheduled filming time) with them and the staff - when he went to leave the press where waiting outside, so we had to get him out a rear entrance with a bunch of hospital staff - no pics, no publicity BS.... just made a bunch of sick kids happy!

Will never understand trying to build a cutting edge innovative bike using an antiquated V-twin engine!
Kinda like signing up for a ****o movie shoot with a 2 incher!

I would love a Motus - was fascinated with them when they were being developed - Then I saw the price. Shame!.

I've still only got three like most folk despite being an ancillary part of the Five Eyes system previously. I must have been too sneaky and dodged the days they fitted the extra two arseholes!

So, therefore, the security alliance referred to should collectively and more accurately be known and referred to as the Five Ais (AAAAA)???

Price aside I reckon that is a fun ride, it achieves what he sets out to do. Good for him
