The Mach Rocket is a bike that appears in Mario Kart World. It is essentially the successor to both the Mach Bike from Mario Kart Wii and the Sport Bike from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Similar to the Mach Bike, it appears to be based on a Benelli 350, a classic Italian racing motorcycle from 1969, while it changes design and colors with different characters similar to the Sport Bike. The emblem is located on the front of the bike, which pops open to reveal a headlight in dark areas. The Mach Rocket shares stats with the R.O.B. H.O.G..
This bike is randomly used by the CPU-controlled Snowman, Chargin' Chuck, Swoop, Mario (All-Terrain), Pauline (Aero), Donkey Kong (All-Terrain), Bowser (Pro Racer), Yoshi (Soft Server), Toadette (Soft Server), Birdo (Pro Racer), Rosalina (Aero), and Bowser Jr. (Pro Racer).
