The Varmint is an unlockable bike in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
Description[]
It is designed very similarly to the Pipe Frame and the Bolt Buggy in Mario Kart 7.
It has a yellow body, with black handlebars on its side, and a brown seat, regardless of which character using it. It is Donkey Kong's signature bike.
