Bullet Bike
Template:Kart-infobox The Bullet Bike is a small bike that appears in Mario Kart Wii. The bike resembles a Bullet Bill combined with a box car, and is similar to the Bullet Blaster from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!. Unlike all the other vehicles in the game, it is the only one not to display the character's emblem anywhere on it. Its kart counterpart is the Mini Beast.
Stats
The Bullet Bike is the fastest small bike in the game, having its speed tied with the Honeycoupe. It also has the best drift and Mini-Turbo in the game, making it easily capable of turning the sharpest corners. Its handling is slightly below average. However, its acceleration and off-road (tied with the Piranha Prowler) are fairly low. Additionally, it is very light (its weight is tied with the Cheep Charger and Magikruiser), which makes it easy for the vehicle to be pushed around by heavier vehicles. Its other stats range from average to moderately high.

Trivia
- The European Spanish name is the same as that of Sport Bike.
- If combined with Toad, the Bullet Bike will have the highest possible Drift stat in the Game, and if combined with Koopa Troopa or Dry Bones, it will have the highest possible Mini-Turbo stat. (However, because bikes cannot produce orange mini-turbos while karts can, pairing Koopa Troopa or Dry Bones with the Mini Beast yields the best mini-turbo in terms of longevity. Similarly, since bikes have lower actual turning capability when drifting than karts, using Toad on the Mini Beast will yield the best drifting performance.)
- If Baby Luigi or Baby Daisy ride the Bullet Bike, they can surpass the Wild Wing's default speed by one point.
