Notes[]
- Kamen Rider Hibiki appears riding his Gaika, among the other Kamen Riders on their Rider Machines, in the animated ending sequence of Heisei Rider vs. Showa Rider: Kamen Rider Taisen feat. Super Sentai.
- Unlike many Rider Machines, Gaika is an ordinary real-world motorcycle with a custom paint job. The HONDA Valkyrie Rune was a special limited edition variant of the HONDA Valkyrie that was in production for only two years as a testbed of style, performance, engineering and to cater to customers who liked buying customized bikes.
- Much like the Hibiki costume, Gaika was custom painted with Maziora.
