The star of LocoCycle is I.R.I.S, a sentient motorcycle that looks like it is from the Knight Rider era of television shows.

There are some well known names behind the voices such as Lisa Foiles as IRIS, Freddy Rodriguez playing Pablo and Robert Patrick lending his vocals to SPIKE. I didn't mind the speech that much, apart from the fact that I missed a lot of Pablo's lines due to the subtitles which are hard to read when you are concentrating on other
