The '''Jet Bike''' is an unlockable [[bike]] body that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. As the name suggests, it resembles a fighter jet. It is one of the few bikes that have an inside drift. It offers no top speed boost, but it does increase acceleration and handling, at the cost of weight and traction. It shares its stats with the [[Sport Bike]], [[Comet (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, 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]]. CPU [[Princess Peach|Peach]], [[Lemmy Koopa|Lemmy]], and [[Ludwig von Koopa|Ludwig]] are seen occasionally using this body during races, equipped with the [[Slim (tire)|Slim]] tires. CPU [[Metal Mario (character)|Metal Mario]] may also be seen using this body, pairing it with the [[Metal]] tires. The ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' 200cc staff ghost has [[Luigi]] ride this bike.
