Fire-Wheel Mk. II is a massive displacement motorcycle designed and developed by Sol Badguy himself. Much of the development was accomplished through his newly found magic that can materialize certain objects.[1] The motorcycle was introduced in Guilty Gear Xrd -Revelator-. In Guilty Gear -Strive-, the motorcycle was fitted with a sidecar—the McFire-Wheel ONE—to accommodate Jack-O' Valentine. Sin Kiske is also occasionally seen riding in the sidecar, such as in Guilty Gear Strive: Dual Rulers.[2]

The derivation of the name is obvious—it is based on a servant he once summoned, the Fire Wheel.[1]

Design

The main body and large rear fender of the Fire-Wheel Mk.II are painted a similar shade of red as the Junkyard Dog Mk.II and Outrage Mk.II swords. "Fire-Wheel Mk.II" is written on both sides of the motorcycle's front end in white block capitals. Two gold bolts are just beneath this text. Also along the front end's sides are recessed, jagged, black detail lines reminiscent of similar lines near the handle of the Junkyard Dog Mk.II. These black lines terminate at the base of large, cylindrical, pieces capped by rounded X-shaped panels with four large golden bolts between its axes. Below these, two slightly articulated tapered posts stick out in front of the foot pegs to provide armor for the rider's legs. They're the same red color as the motorcycle's body, with white tips.

The front of the vehicle features a steel bullbar and a long, hinged, steel compartment for Sol to store a weapon in. On top of the compartment is a gold-colored cross-shaped decorative piece and a steel lift bar. "Back Yard Compatible MANA Chariot" is written on the gold cross. At the front of the steel compartment, the Fire-Wheel's body forks outward around the front wheel, exposing the top of it, and the compartment itself is decorated by a an gold organic piece possibly inspired by the shapes of leaves or heraldic crests. Both of the motorcycle's chunky black wheels have rugged treads with slim golden rims and are heavily armored.

The central part of the Fire-Wheel's body is steel, with steel foot pegs, a black seat, and the curve of a red fuel tank in front of the seat. A round piece in the lower steel area reads "High Capacity MANA Engine HX7-003b" and just to the side of it is more text, which reads: "Back Yard Compatible MANA Chariot." To either side of the fuel tank, recessed inside of the motorcycle's body slightly, are its handles. Both handles have clutch or break handles. Between the handles is the motorcycle's console, which is composed of two bright yellow, round, gauges with orange needles; and one smaller, semicircular, orange gauge with a black gear-shaped piece inside it. The largest gauge has "Caution!! Extreme Tempreture FIRE-WHEEL MK.2" written near its center, while the other two gauges have "High-octane Lead Free MANA Only" written between them.

The chunky rear end of the Fire-Wheel has four steel exhaust pipes (two on each side) capped in gold that stick upwards, a large gold bolt beneath them, and "Fire-Wheel Mk.II" written beneath that in white block capitals with the Junkyard Dog emblem beside it. A small rectangular vent near a steel bolt on the red fender that extends over the wheel reads "Caution!! Extreme Tempreture." A steel plate on the back of the fender has "Back Yard Compatible MANA Chariot" engraved on it.

Trivia

  • Based on writing found on the Fire-Wheel Mk.II itself, it seemingly runs on "mana," which is the resource required to summon units in Guilty Gear 2 -Overture-,[3] including the Mk.II's namesake, the Fire Wheel.
