It has good speed and weight, along with good drifting and mini-turbo. However, the bike suffers from the worst acceleration of all bikes, and its handling and off-road are also rather low.
On a side note, the Flame Runner is one of the top 3 bikes used in many Time Trials along with the Bullet Bike and Mach Bike.
The kart counterpart for this bike is the Flame Flyer.
