The '''Flame Rider''' is an unlockable [[Standard bike (vehicle class)|standard]] [[bike]] body that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. The character's logo is found on the front, but it seen on the rear of the bike as well. The engine has a [[Fire Flower]], a V-twin cylinder with [[Mushroom]] pistons that shake, and a [[? Block]]'s question mark engraved on it. The Flame Rider offers a small acceleration boost and a large handling boost at the cost of weight and grip. It shares its stats with the [[Pipe Frame]], [[Wild Wiggler]], [[Standard Bike]], [[W 25 Silver Arrow]], [[Varmint]], and [[City Tripper]]. It is reminiscent of real-life bikes, most notably the {{wp|Chopper (motorcycle)|chopper}} design popular in the late 1960s and early 1970s, similar to the [[Zipper (kart)|Zipper]] and [[Wario Bike]]. The 150cc staff ghost for [[Shy Guy Falls]] uses [[Shy Guy]] on the Flame Rider with the [[Off-Road]] tires.
'''Flame Rider''' is a [[bike]] body that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''. It resembles a [[wikipedia:Harley-Davidson|Harley-Davidson bike]] with a fire design on the side. The character's logo is found on the headlights, but it seen on the rear of the bike as well. The engine on the bottom of the bike has a [[Fire Flower]], two [[Mushroom]] pistons, and a ? mark engraved on it. The Flame Rider offers a small acceleration boost and a large handling boost at the cost of weight and grip.
 
In ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', CPU [[Shy Guy]], [[Bowser]], [[King Boo]], [[zeldawiki:Champion's Tunic|Champion's Tunic]] [[Link]], [[Waluigi]], and [[Petey Piranha]] can be occasionally seen using this bike body, with Shy Guy using the [[Off-Road]] tires while Bowser, Champion's Tunic Link (who also uses the [[Parachute (glider)|Parachute]] glider with it), King Boo and Petey Piranha pair it with [[Monster (tire)|Monster]] tires; Waluigi uses the [[Slim (tire)|Slim]] tires instead. Additionally, the Flame Rider now only shares its stats with the Standard Bike, Wild Wiggler and W 25 Silver Arrow. The 200cc staff ghost for [[Bowser's Castle (Mario Kart 8)|Bowser's Castle]] has [[Dry Bowser]] using this bike with the [[Slim (tire)|Slim]] tires and the [[Bowser Kite]].
