| 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 emblem is found on the front and rear sides of the bike. 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.
