The '''Jet Bike''' is an unlockable [[Sport bike (vehicle class)|sport]] [[bike]] body that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. As the name suggests, it resembles a fighter jet. The emblem is located on the sides of the bike. It is one of the few bikes that have an inside drift. It does not offer any ground speed boost, but does provide a strong acceleration and handling boost, at the cost of hindering weight slightly and traction heavily. In fact, the Jet Bike offers the worst traction stat of all vehicle bodies in the game. It shares its stats with the [[Sport Bike]], [[Comet]], and [[Yoshi Bike]]. It is one of the several vehicles in ''Mario Kart 8'' to have a supercharged engine. The [[Blue Falcon]] has the same engine sound as the Jet Bike which is a ducted jet engine, although lower-pitched in comparison. In ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', the Jet Bike's stats have been somewhat altered, and it now instead shares its stats with only the [[Sport Bike]] and the [[Prancer]]. It now provides a small ground speed boost at the cost of still hindering weight and traction, and now hindering acceleration. However, the traction stat is no longer as weak as in ''Mario Kart 8''. CPU [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[Ludwig von Koopa|Ludwig]] are seen occasionally using this body during races, equipped with the [[Slim (tire)|Slim]] tires. CPU [[Metal Mario]] may also be seen using this body, pairing it with the [[Metal]] tires. The ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' 200cc staff ghost for [[Sunshine Airport]] has [[Luigi]] ride this bike with [[Metal]] tires and the [[Plane Glider]]. | The '''Jet Bike''' is an unlockable [[Sport bike (vehicle class)|sport]] [[bike]] body that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''.
