The '''Sport Bike''' is a [[Bike]] body that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. As its name implies, it resembles a typical [[wikipedia:Sport bike|sports bike]] with a fairing enclosing the front part and as such it could be considered the successor to the [[Mach Bike]] from ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. The bike has good acceleration and handling stats, but its weight and especially traction stats are poor. The character's logo is at the center of the front side, and there is another logo next to the exhaust pipe. It changes its varnish depending on its driver. It has the same stats as the [[Comet (bike)|Comet]], the [[Yoshi Bike]], and the [[Jet Bike]]. It has a four-stroke twin cylinder and its sound is shared with the Yoshi Bike. | The '''Sport Bike''' is a [[Bike]] body that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''.
