The Machine Gun Bike is a vehicle in Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record.
It can be crafted in the Combo Bay after the mission Meet the Contestants is completed, by combining a dirtbike with an LMG.
This vehicle is effective at clearing out large areas of zombies; however, the Slicecycle is usually a better choice, as it has a wider range, greater durability, and is controversially easier to create.

LMG locations[]
- Further information: Light Machine Gun (Dead Rising 2) § Locations
- Head to the Yucatan Casino, then climb the statue in the center to acquire the LMG. Then travel to the Silver Strip entrance.
- On Day 2 (September 26), there is an LMG for sale for $20,000 at Tinkerbox, a pawnshop very close to the trailer.
Vehicle modifications[]
In Dead Rising 2, after defeating the psychopath Leon Bell during the mission Meet the Contestants, Chuck acquires a key to Leon's Combo Bay and a green dirtbike.
In Off the Record, after defeating the psychopath Chuck Greene during the mission People Like Us, Frank also acquires a key to the Combo Bay and a green dirtbike.[1]
The dirtbike, located in the Combo Bay on the Silver Strip's north end, will respawn every time the player enters another area with a load screen.
