Features
-
The motorcycle mount is available in two versions, different in name as well as color scheme. The mount available to Alliance players, the Mekgineer's Chopper, is blue and gold, while the one available to Horde players, the Mechano-hog, is red and brown. Characters with an engineering skill level of 450 and an exalted reputation with the relevant faction---Alliance Vanguard and Horde expedition, respectively---can purchase the schematic for this mount as well as some of the parts needed to create it.
Benefits
-
The motorcycle is a fast land mount, increasing the player's movement speed by 100 percent; any character may ride it, as long as he has enough gold to buy it and a riding skill level of at least 150. Both versions of the mount have a fold-up sidecar, which can unfold to carry an extra passenger. Learning either version of the mount will grant the "Get to the Choppa!" achievement.
