ThePhantom is a largeoutside driftingbike that appears inMario Kart Wii. It resembles a modifiedHarley Davidson Road King with fin attachments. The character's emblem is shown on the sides of the front part and on the back of the vehicle. The Phantom is one of seven vehicles inMario Kart Wii to go through a design change other than a palette-swap, the others being theBooster Seat,Bit Bike,Flame Runner,Wario Bike,Shooting Star, andSpear. In this case, Rosalina's Phantom has its foot pedestals positioned further, and its center is slightly thinner in appearance. Also, Bowser's and Dry Bowser's Phantom have their handles positioned lower than the others.

This bike does not have akart counterpart. Except for theOffroader with its drift stat, no other kart has stats similar to this bike's stats, but its medium counterpart is theZip Zip. It is one of six vehicles that does not have a counterpart for its size class, the other five being theBlue Falcon,Jet Bubble,Classic Dragster,Piranha Prowler, and Zip Zip.

The Phantom can be unlocked by winning the MirrorSpecial Cup or by playing 4,050 races. This and theOffroader are the only vehicles in the game with a drift stat of less than twenty; it is the only bike in the game with a drift stat of less than twenty.

The Phantom features exactly averageMini-Turbo, which is tied with that of theTiny Titan. Its best stat is the off-road stat, which is both the best of all large vehicles, as well as the same as that of theDolphin Dasher (its indirect group counterpart) andBit Bike, making it the only large vehicle besides Dry Bowser riding theWario Bike that can drift off-road. Its handling and weight are also good, while its speed and acceleration are both average. However, the bike suffers from the worst drifting in the game and drifts outwards, making it hard to take sharp corners. The Phantom has a stat total of 298 points.

Compared to the Zip Zip, the Phantom is slightly faster and heavier, but it has slightly worse handling, acceleration, offroad, mini-turbo, and drift. The Phantom is also the second lightest large vehicle in the game, as it is only heavier than theShooting Star, and its weight is tied with the medium-sizedWild Wing kart. It is also the third slowest large vehicle in the game; it is only faster than theWario Bike and theOffroader, and having its speed tied with theMagikruiser and theStandard Bike M.

If Waluigi rides the Phantom, it will exceed the drift stat of theSuper Blooper and Wario Bike by one point.
