¿Por qué es masculine?

Motivos is masculine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "motivus," which functioned as a noun (not purely an adjective) in Latin. Portuguese inherited the masculine gender from this Latin noun form. The word evolved from Latin meaning "that which moves" or "moving cause" to the modern Portuguese meaning of "reason" or "motive."
