The '''Flame Runner''' (known as the '''Bowser Bike''' in the British English version) is a large [[Sport bike (vehicle class)|inside drifting]] [[bike]] which appears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. As the British English name suggests, the bike resembles [[Bowser]]; the coloring of the bike even mirrors Bowser himself. Its general shape also resembles a {{wp|Types of motorcycles|naked bike}}, specifically an {{wp|Aprilia Tuono}}. The emblem is located on the sides of the bike. No other vehicles in ''Mario Kart Wii'' bear physical resemblances to its playable characters. The Japanese name of the bike, Super Bowser, uses Bowser's English name instead of using his Japanese name of Koopa. This was later used with the DLC [[Bone Rattler]] from ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''.

The [[kart]] counterpart for this bike is the [[Flame Flyer]]. Its medium, small, and group counterparts are the [[Mach Bike]], [[Bullet Bike]], and [[Shooting Star (bike)|Shooting Star]] respectively.

The Flame Runner is one of seven vehicles in ''Mario Kart Wii'' to go through a design change other than a color swap; the others being the [[Booster Seat]], [[Bit Bike]], [[Wario Bike]], [[Shooting Star (bike)|Shooting Star]], [[Spear]], and [[Phantom (bike)|Phantom]]. In this case, Bowser's and Dry Bowser's Flame Runners have their exhaust pipes positioned lower, and Rosalina's and the female Mii’s Flame Runners feature shorter handlebars.

If Bowser rides the Flame Runner, its speed will become that of the Sneakster and Flame Flyer, its weight will become that of the Flame Flyer, [[Standard Kart L]], and [[Wario Bike]], and its drift will become that of the [[Classic Dragster]]. Similarly, if Funky Kong rides the Flame Runner, its speed will become that of the Sprinter, and its off-road will become that of the [[Wild Wing]], Blue Falcon, [[Honeycoupe]], and Sneakster. If [[Waluigi]] rides the Flame Runner, its acceleration will become that of the Spear and [[Mach Bike]], and its drift will become that of the Honeycoupe.
