The '''Shooting Star''' (known as the '''Twinkle Star''' in Japanese and British English) is a large [[Standard bike (vehicle class)|outside drifting]] [[bike]] that appears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. It resembles a [[wikipedia:Scooter (motorcycle)|motorized scooter]], specifically a [[wikipedia:Suzuki Burgman|Suzuki Burgman]]. It has a [[Super Star|Star]] on the front, stars with comet trails on its sides and exhaust pipes, and a gray wing on the handlebars. The emblem is located on the very back of the bike. It is unlocked by winning the 100cc [[Star Cup]] or by playing 1,500 races. The Shooting Star is one of seven vehicles in ''Mario Kart Wii'' to go through a design change other than a palette-swap, the others being the [[Booster Seat]], [[Bit Bike]], [[Flame Runner]], [[Wario Bike]], [[Spear]], and [[Phantom (bike)|Phantom]]. In this case, the stars on the sides of [[Rosalina]]'s Shooting Star are larger than on the other characters'. Also, hers has longer and flatter foot rests than the others do. In a similar manner, Bowser's and Dry Bowser's Shooting Stars have their handlebars positioned lower than the other Shooting Stars.

{{MKW vehicle

The Shooting Star has good speed (which is tied with that of the [[Super Blooper (kart)|Super Blooper]]) and weight (tied with the [[B Dasher Mk. 2|Sprinter]]), along with great drift and [[Mini-Turbo]], which are tied with that of the [[Wild Wing]]. Its mini-turbo is also tied with the [[Booster Seat]]. It has the best drift and mini-turbo of any large class vehicle. On the other hand, its off-road, acceleration (tied with the [[Sneakster]], [[Mini Beast]], and [[Piranha Prowler]]), and handling stats are low, and it is the lightest large vehicle in the game.

Although the Shooting Star has good drift and mini-turbo, it is a Drift type bike, which means it drifts outside. In fact, it has the highest speed and drift stat among all the bikes that drift outward as well as being the only outward drifting bike to be faster than all six standard karts and bikes.

 

 

If Waluigi rides the Shooting Star, it will tie with the Mini Beast's default drift stat. Also, if Donkey Kong, Rosalina, or a Large Mii rides the Shooting Star, it will tie with the [[Mach Bike]]'s default mini-turbo stat. In addition, if Wario or Dry Bowser ride the Shooting Star, its mini-turbo will exceed the Mini Beast's default mini-turbo stat by one point.
