Matt Hotch Builds the 360 Hard-Krome Roadstar
If you have been to any of the major motorcycle shows in the past year, no doubt you have seen Hard-Krome's black Roadstar with the oversized 280 rear tire.

Hard-Krome has recently began working with Matt Hotch, back to back winner of Discovery Channels Biker Build-Off.

They purchased a 2005 Roadstar and sent it to Matt's shop, HotMatch Custom Cycles. Matt began by trashing the stock swing-arm and front end in favor of a single sided swing-arm and Perse front end held by Perse Triple Trees.


Matt had a custom front fender built for the oversized 23 inch front rim and tire. The stock rear fender was split in half and a new center section was added to cover the rear tire. We flipped the stock taillight to give the bike a teardrop look.

Up front, Matt built a special set of handlebars and added Performance Machine hand controls and front caliper. Accutronix foot controls take care of the rear brake and foot shifter. Bitchin Richs Seat Co. built a seat from scratch as well.

The 360 Hard-Krome motorcycle will make the rounds at all 2005-2006 Cycle World International Motorcycle Shows as well. So keep an eye open for a show coming to your area and see the bike for yourself.

Your right Hendersd I look it up the best that you can do on a kit is 240 RC components they do have that one. you can do your roadie in a 360 I did my roadie in a 300 you will have to do some mods on the frame its just time and money.I do every thing myself.can you weld?

Re:I am looking for this motorcycle............. 2 Years, 10 Months ago  
Just when I think I have saw the coolest R* another one is around the bend. That bike looks awesome. Very clean. I would have put a LED strip tail under the fender but that's just me, awesome build though. I have absolutely no clue which direction I want to go with my bike, and it just keeps getting worse every time I see another one. I can definitely see how someone can have 2, 3, 4 bikes. This is great!! Oh well nothing in the budget for mods now anyway. My most recent modification was 8lbs. 2oz. and 21 1/2 in long. This should take up my mod budget for a while.
