Template:Kart-infobox The Spear (known as Torpedo in Europe and Oceania) is a large-sized bike in Mario Kart Wii. It looks similar to a torpedo or a blimp converted into a bike with an engine and exhaust pipes. The character's emblem is located on the front and sides of the bike.
The kart counterpart for this bike is the Jetsetter. The Spear can be unlocked by unlocking 12 expert staff ghosts or by playing 3,600 races.

Trivia
- The Spear is one of seven vehicles in Mario Kart Wii to go through a design change other than a palette-swap; the others being the Booster Seat, Bit Bike, Flame Runner, Wario Bike, Shooting Star, and Phantom. In this case, Bowser's and Dry Bowser's Spear have their exhaust pipes positioned lower than the others. Also, Rosalina's and the Female Mii's Spear feature shorter handlebars.
- If Daisy rides on the Sprinter, its speed can surpass the Spear's default speed by one point.
- If Funky Kong rides on the Spear, its speed can surpass the Jetsetter's default speed by two points.
- While the visual graph shows the Spear with the same acceleration stat as the Mach Bike, its internal data shows it is actually slower.
