When performed, Wario | When performed, Wario hops on his motorcycle and can move faster on the ground. The bike can be used to ram into opponents, and as a throwable and destructible item after Wario dismounts. As such, it can be thrown by other players as an obstacle. It also affords Wario limited protection from attacks and stage hazards. | ||

The bike's speed can be controlled depending on how much the player tilts the control stick. If the player taps {{Button|GCN|Control Stick|R-S|s=20px}}, the bike will travel at its fastest. Wario can dismount the bike voluntarily by pressing an attack button as well as being knocked off by another player's attack. To ride his bike again, he must get back on it by using the special move again while he's near it. If he's far away from it, or if the bike has been recently destroyed, using the special move will make Wario look around, trying to find his bike, and do nothing. | The bike's speed can be controlled depending on how much the player tilts the control stick.

Wario also gains a form knockback-based [[armor]] on frame 1, with a 60 KB threshold. If the 60 KB threshold is broken, Wario will take full knockback from the attack. However, if 30 KB is reached, Wario will dismount without taking [[knockback]]. | ||
When Wario dismounts, other characters can pick up and throw the bike, including Wario. Only Wario can ride the bike, although another Wario can ride it and use it as his own. The bike can also be destroyed, eaten, or thrown offstage, but it can be respawned after enough time has passed. In ''Brawl'', the bike will never despawn without player intervention. | When Wario dismounts, other characters can pick up and throw the bike, including Wario.

Control is essential to using the move efficiently. If the player moves too fast, they might drive off the stage. If they make a turn at too high a speed, Wario will fall off of the bike.

Wario can jump off of his bike in mid-air, even if he has already used his [[double jump]], and he will retain his double jump if he has not already used it.

If the player presses up while Wario is riding his bike, he will do a wheelie, changing the [[hitbox]]'s power and position, and allowing Wario to avoid things like [[Banana]]s and other "character-sensitive" traps such as the [[Motion-Sensor Bomb]] - save for the [[Pitfall]], whose detection range is large enough to catch Wario and catapult him with enough force for a [[one-hit KO]]. Doing a wheelie also gives Wario a higher dismount point. For example, if he wheelies through a low soft platform, he can immediately get off on the platform instead of the ground beneath it. | If the player presses up while Wario is riding his bike, he will do a wheelie, changing the [[hitbox]]'s power and position, and allowing Wario to avoid things like [[Banana]]s and other "character-sensitive" traps such as the [[Motion-Sensor Bomb]] - save for the [[Pitfall]], whose detection range is large enough to catch Wario and catapult him with enough force for a [[one-hit KO]].

In ''SSB4'', Wario's bike received some fairly significant changes. Besides being able to travel faster, Wario can make as many turns as he likes at any speed without falling off the bike. He also has a new attack with the bike where he can "crush" his opponents with a wheelie to inflict damage. | In ''SSB4'', Wario's bike received some fairly significant changes.

As a result, Wario can now be knocked off the bike through breaking it. The [[knockback]]-based [[armor]] was also severely [[nerf]]ed, now being 20 KB for Wario to take knockback. The threshold for a simple dismount has also been completely removed. The HP was also nerfed, from 26 to 18 HP. This all applies ''Ultimate'' as well. | ||
If Wario uses his wheelie and then lowers his bike onto his opponent, the resulting hit causes high knockback, capable of KO'ing players at 80%. Wario can no longer dismount his bike during a wheelie, so the user must level out the bike before jumping off, even in midair. Ramming an opponent with the bike and then immediately using a wheelie creates a two-hit combo that can deal as much as 19% on unsuspecting enemies. Furthermore, Wario is now able to use his bike immediately after it is destroyed, with an orange flash on Wario indicating that it has respawned. | If Wario uses his wheelie and then lowers his bike onto his opponent, the resulting hit causes high knockback, capable of KO'ing players at 80%.

Additionally, if Wario dismounts his bike as it is moving forward, the bike will continue to advance and strike the other players, causing 3% damage, effectively giving Wario an armored projectile.

In a rare mechanical difference between the Wii U and 3DS versions of ''Smash 4'', this despawn time in {{for3ds}} is 24 seconds rather than 22.

Another discrepancy between the two versions occurs when Wario throws the bike. In the Wii U version, it bounces two or three times depending on whether Wario is facing right or left, but in the 3DS version it bounces once or twice. It is likely these differences are unintentional as they have little impact on game performance, unlike other mechanical changes (such as Pikmin having simpler behavior). | ||

When thrown, the bike lost most of its bounce, now simply landing where it is thrown.
