The Hardy-Daytona is equipped with Shinra's first-V-type DOHC engine, born of technical feedback from aircraft engine laboratories. The bike can be seen on the Final Fantasy VII International Bonus Disc content, and has the caption "hrady-DAYTONA" in English text. The engine design is copied from the first generation of the Yamaha V-Max.ĭummied dialogue in the original game suggests that the bike may have once been intended to be interacted with, and refers to the bike as "Hardy Datona". The model is known as the Hardy-Daytona, referring to motorcycle manufacturing company Harley-Davidson in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and the Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida, where notable racing events, such as the Daytona 200 motorcycle race and the Daytona 500 NASCAR stock car race, are held every year. Unlike later motorcycles in the Final Fantasy VII series, the Hardy-Daytona is virtually identical to real-world designs, with visible wheel-guards, headlight, and exhaust pipes.
