Standard bikes are introduced as ''drift type'' (「ドリフトタイプ」) bikes in ''Mario Kart Wii''.<ref name="JapaneseDriftType"/> They are not explicitly distinguished from sport bikes in the vehicle selection screen and as such, the player needs to look at the posture of the rider to understand whether the selected bike is a standard bike or a sport bike. All the chopper bikes ([[Wario Bike]], [[Shooting Star (bike)|Shooting Star]], and [[Phantom (bike)|Phantom]]) drift out while performing a manual drift, so they're categorized under the standard bike vehicle class. | Standard bikes are introduced as ''drift type'' (「ドリフトタイプ」) bikes in ''Mario Kart Wii''.<ref name="JapaneseDriftType"/> They are not explicitly distinguished from sport bikes in the vehicle selection screen and as such, the player needs to look at the posture of the rider to understand whether the selected bike is a standard bike or a sport bike.

The main distinguishing feature of standard bikes is their ability to drift like karts, unlike karts however as soon as they start drifting after landing from a jump they quickly slide toward the outside of the turn for a brief moment, leading to slightly different lines. Furthermore, their turning capability (angular velocity) while drifting is in general significantly lower than that of karts. | The main distinguishing feature of standard bikes is their ability to drift like karts, unlike karts however as soon as they start drifting after landing from a jump they quickly slide toward the outside of the turn for a brief moment, leading to slightly different lines.
