The '''Master Cycle''' is a [[Sport bike (vehicle class)|sport]] [[bike]] in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. It is the signature bike of ''Skyward Sword''-style [[Link]]. It is an inside drifting bike shaped after a horse, based on and named after the [[Master Sword]]. The sides of the bike feature the [[zeldawiki:Hylian Shield|Hylian Shield]]. A spinning Triforce can be seen behind the shields. As stated on Nintendo of America's Twitter account,<ref>NintendoAmerica (October 15, 2014). "[https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/522430647143763968/photo/1 ''The Master Cycle is part of the first DLC pack for #MK8 and has plenty of horse power.'']" ''Twitter''. Retrieved October 15, 2014.</ref> the Master Cycle has "plenty of {{wp|horsepower|horse power}}", a reference to Link traveling by [[zeldawiki:Epona|horse]] in his games.


The '''Master Cycle''' is one of [[Link]]'s available vehicles included in the ''[[The Legend of Zelda X Mario Kart 8]]'' DLC pack for ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''. It is a motorcycle based and named off the signature sword Link wields in his series of video games, the [[ZeldaWiki:Master Sword|Master Sword]]. The side of the motorcycle features his signature shield, the [[ZeldaWiki:Hylian Shield|Hylian Shield]], and the rims of the wheels have a [[ZeldaWiki:Triforce|Triforce]] drawn on. The artwork design for Link riding the Master Cycle is drawn in the same style as artwork from ''[[ZeldaWiki:The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword]]'', rather than 3D renders like the rest of the ''Mario Kart 8'' characters. As stated by [https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/522430647143763968/photo/1 Nintendo's Twitter account], the Master Cycle has "plenty of horsepower", a reference of Link traveling by [[ZeldaWiki:Epona|horse]] in his games.

==History==
{{foreignname
===''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''===
In ''Mario Kart 8'', the Master Cycle is included in [[The Legend of Zelda x Mario Kart 8|''The Legend of Zelda'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] downloadable content pack. The Master Cycle's biggest strengths are its speed and handling, while its known weakness is its traction. It is the fastest bike in the game and is tied with [[The Duke]] for having the highest weight and lowest acceleration of all bikes. The bike is unique in that no other vehicle part in the game shares its stats.
 
A CPU-controlled [[Link]] will occasionally use this vehicle body, paired with the [[Triforce Tires]], and [[Hylian Kite]]. The Master Cycle shares its engine sound with the [[Bone Rattler]] which is a {{wp|straight-twin engine}}.
 
In ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', the Master Cycle is part of the base game and is randomly unlocked by collecting [[coin]]s. A CPU ''The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword''-style Link can use this bike body. However, its stats are different, with its only advantage being a small ground speed boost, while its water speed, acceleration, anti-gravity handling, traction, and mini-turbo are hindered. The Master Cycle shares its stats with both the [[Sneeker]] and [[Gold Standard]]. This version also includes the [[Master Cycle Zero]], a counterpart to the Master Cycle used by [[zeldawiki:Champion's Tunic|Champion's Tunic]] Link.
 
===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
The Master Cycle appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as a Legend-class Grab-type primary [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] that has two support slots. When used, this spirit increases a fighter's speed in battle. The only way to obtain it is by summoning it with [[City Tripper]], Mach Rider, and Excitebike spirits and an Attack-type core.
