How to Get the Akira Bike in Cyberpunk 2077
By Jack O'Dwyer
The Akira Bike in Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the motorcycles available for players to ride.
Cyberpunk 2077 players have the opportunity to ride a motorbike sporting a design inspired by the genre cornerstone AKIRA. Fans of cyberpunk as a theme may know it from its original manga by Katsuhiro Otomo or the film adaptation released in 1988. The story takes place in post-apocalyptic Tokyo following the detonation of a nuclear bomb on the city. 31 years later, in 2019, it follows the life of Kaneda, leader of a local bike gang, as he tries to rescue his friend Tetsuo from an underground government project.
The level of detail in Cyberpunk is amazing. The art style, the real-time cutscenes, the level of detail, the texture resolution. It’s living up to the hype I’ve had for the past 2-3 years. My Bladerunner and Akira fantasy is going wild rn. #Cyberpunk2077 pic.twitter.com/q2pt4lN1yB

How to Get the Akira Bike in Cyberpunk 2077
Players can get their hands on the Akira-inspired Bike, also known as the Yaiba Kusanagi CT-3X, the same way they acquire most other impressive vehicles in the game. Once they reach the appropriate Street Cred rank—in this case, rank 12—V will be messaged by Wakako Okada in about a new bike up for sale.
After receiving the call, players will find a new job corresponding to the bike in the Ride tab of their Journal. Simply travel to the parking garage located in Westbrook and pay the required 22,000 E to claim the bike. From there, it will be added to their summonable vehicles and can be ridden at any time.
The Yaiba Kusanagi CT-3X is one of the fastest bikes Cyberpunk 2077 has to offer. It has a RWD drive train, 183 horsepower, and weighs 820 lbs.
