What do you get the man who has everything? Keanu Reeves on a motorbike.

The 51-year-old unveiled himself as one of the fantasy gifts in the 89th annual Neiman Marcus' Christmas Book on Tuesday.

For just $150,000, punters can book the actor for a two day motorcycle ride around California - and they get to keep the custom bike he co-designed.

The Matrix star was in Dallas to unveil the Christmas catalogue, which includes ten other luxury pressies such as a 'dream trip' to India costing $400,000 and a balloon trip to the edge of space for $90,000.

'What happens when a movie star with a passion for motorcycles walks into the shop of an acclaimed custom bike builder? They create the bike of their dreams (and yours),' the brochure boasts.

The Arch Motorcycle Company, made up of Reeves and bike designer Gard Hollinger, created the 121 horsepower KRGT-1, which is based on a bike the two worked for five years on for the star's personal use - and which he now considers 'the best bike on the planet'.

'For Neiman Marcus, we added performance enhancements, so it’s got a sportier frame, engine and suspension,' Reeves explained.

But Christmas shoppers who snap up one of the three Arch Motorcycle & Ride Experiences available don't just get the bike.

As well as a three night stay in a suite at Santa Monica's Shutters on the Beach, the buyer and a guest get to have breakfast with Reeves and Hollinger before going on a days ride through the Santa Monica mountains, before stopping off at a beachside café in Malibu.

Good guy: For each fantasy gift bought, Neiman Marcus will donate between $1,000 and $15,000 to charity

The following day the foursome go for a cruise around Angeles Crest National Forest, followed by lunch, and then a 'final ride'.

Other fantasy gifts in the Christmas book include a whiskey tasting tour at the Stitzel-Weller Distillery in Louisville, Kentucky, sampling long forgotten and recently rediscovered barrels which can never be recreated, for $125,000.

Alternatively shoppers can snag a trio of guitars belonging to Steve Miller, Lyle Lovett and ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons for $30,000 a piece, which are picked up backstage at a respective gig of each musician.
