Overview[]

Launchmotorcycle

Launch on her S-Cargo one-wheeled motorcycle

A motorcycle is first seen in Dragon Ball being used by Bulma, who drives Goku and herself around on it whilst searching for the Dragon Balls. Bulma owns at least three motorcycles: a white motorcycle Goku borrowed to save her from a pterodactyl, a red one she used to go on the see with Goku and the Turtle (which based on Kawasaki KR250), and a yellow motorcycle she used to go at Aru Village. Launch is seen riding a one-wheeled motorcycle on occasion, during her days as a bandit.

Dr. Flappe owns a snowmobile, Ninja Murasaki stole it when he thought he had the Dragon Balls, instead being Goku's lunch. Although General Blue is never seen riding a motorcycle in the General Blue Saga proper, the cover for chapter 80, "The Three Stolen Dragon Balls", depicts him riding one.
