* BottomlessFuelTanks: Averted. I.R.I.S says in the second stage of Bi-Polar Offroads that her energy cells need to recharge, leading to her and Pablo [[VehicularTurnabout hijacking a Big Arms truck with an energy cell.]]
Added DiffLines:
* HighSpeedHijack: The final section of 4-2 has I.R.I.S commandeer a Big Arms truck to use its energy cell to recharge. The truck's main (and only, considering it's not armed and can't be boosted) attack consists of sideswiping the S.U.Vs and avoiding everything else coming down the road.

* MidairRepair: Not done in a fall, but in the middle of Hidden Canyons, I.R.I.S. spontaneously malfunctions. With a trailer truck bearing down on her location, Pablo (still being stuck to her axle) has to weld, rewire, re-screw, and [[PercussiveMaintenance hammer]] I.R.I.S back into working order before they both get slammed.
Added DiffLines:
* PrehensileHair: Prehensile ''chains,'' actually. While not shown in the cutscenes, the dragging chains on S.P.I.K.E.'s front wheel are used to commandeer (and likely pilot) the helicopter in the Keys.

Completely unaware of the language barrier between them, I.R.I.S. sets off on a lengthy road trip to the rally, and won't let something petty like the military or indeed S.P.I.K.E. stop her.

So, a secretive summit of world leaders have gathered to witness the unveiling of two artificially intelligent weapons-grade motorcycles - I.R.I.S. and S.P.I.K.E.. Unfortunately, a thunderstorm immediately hits, with I.R.I.S. taking a bolt to the circuits and appearing to be damaged. It's up to a mechanic by the name of Pablo to repair her...

!!''[=LocoCycle=]'' contains examples of:
* AIIsACrapshoot: The events of the game are kicked off by I.R.I.S. gaining newfound sentience through being struck by lightning, then escaping on a whim of ambition.
* ComedicSociopathy: Yes, Pablo does spend the majority of the game being dragged behind I.R.I.S. and occasionally used as a melee weapon. No, I.R.I.S. doesn't seem to care.
* HighAltitudeBattle: The melee combat primarily consists of this.
* LanguageBarrier: A lot of the jokes during the gameplay segments are at the expense of I.R.I.S. deluding herself into trying to understand Pablo.
* MadLibsDialogue: I.R.I.S.' speech pattern occasionally gives this.
* MorphWeapon: By default, I.R.I.S. uses machine guns to fight off cars, but can switch to a vaguely-humanoid form during aerial fistfights.
