  • A Reddit user showcased a Harley-Davidson motorcycle design using Tears of the Kingdom's mechanics, gaining praise and attention.

While playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, one player created an incredible machine inspired by a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. While Tears of the Kingdom is over two years old, many players continue to showcase impressive creations in the game, including this motorcycle build.

As the sequel to the incredibly popular Breath of the Wild, Nintendo faced the challenge of having Tears of the Kingdom stand out. In addition to a reworked map of Hyrule with Sky Islands and the Depths, one of the defining features of the 2023 game was Ultrahand. Thanks to this ability, players can move objects and attach them together to create incredible machines that can be enhanced by Zonai devices. As time has passed, the game’s community has become more familiar with the building mechanics.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has one underrated right-hand ability that may have a chance to be reused in other games.

On Reddit, a user known as ryt1314059 showed off what can be done using Tears of the Kingdom’s Ultrahand. As seen in a video, the player had created a motorcycle inspired by Harley-Davidson, and the result was impressive. Using a variety of Zonai devices and objects from around Hyrule, the Reddit user made an incredibly detailed bike featuring everything from handlebars to tailpipes. The vehicle was also quite maneuverable, with Link shown taking it for a spin in an open field. In the video, ryt1314059 teased that the bike design would be shared with the new QR code feature for Tears of the Kingdom on Switch 2, allowing fans to have their own Harley-Davidson in the game.

So far, this new motorcycle has been a hit on the Hyrule Engineering subreddit, with the post gaining hundreds of upvotes. In the comments, users praised the build and said it was one of the best motorcycle designs they had seen on Reddit. Many pointed out the clever details in the build, such as using two wagon wheels fused together at the front of the bike. The creation even caught the attention of an engineer at Harley-Davidson, who highlighted all the details ryt1314059 thought to include.

This is only the latest build from ryt1314059, as they have a history of designing incredible contraptions. On their Reddit page, they have shared many other builds, including a helicopter and various planes. They even made a submarine in Tears of the Kingdom that could be submerged in the water using a buoyancy system.

With Tears of the Kingdom confirmed as one of the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition games, it will be interesting to see how many more players return to the title in the months ahead. Hopefully, this will mean even more impressive creations will be shared with the community using the upcoming build-sharing feature.
