Mechano-hog is a motorcycle mount that is created by top Horde engineers. This vehicle allows one party member to ride along in the side-car.

The Alliance counterpart is called the [Mekgineer's Chopper]. Both fulfill the achievement Get to the Choppa!.

Activating the Sidecar

To activate the Mechano-hog's sidecar and carry a passenger, simply invite them to a group. The player's pointer will then turn to a green mounting arrow when they mouse over the Mechano-hog, allowing them to jump on while the sidecar deploys itself automatically.

Source

This item can be crafted using Engineering (450).

Materials required
	12x [Titansteel Bar]			40x [Handful of Cobalt Bolts]
	2x [Arctic Fur]			1x [Salvaged Iron Golem Parts]
	8x [Goblin-Machined Piston]			1x [Elementium-Plated Exhaust Pipe]

Taught by [Schematic: Mechano-hog], which can be purchased from the Horde Expedition quartermasters Gara Skullcrush and Sebastian Crane at Exalted reputation for for 320.

Ingredient List

A complete breakdown of all components needed:

Materials required
	72x [Titanium Ore]			40x [Cobalt Ore]
	120x [Crystallized Fire]			120x [Crystallized Shadow]
	120x [Crystallized Earth]			2x [Arctic Fur]
	1x [Salvaged Iron Golem Parts]			8x [Goblin-Machined Piston]
	1x [Elementium-Plated Exhaust Pipe]

Note that it may take less or more cobalt ore to make the bolts (1-3 per 2 ores).

Notes

The components that can't be made, or skinned, can be purchased from Roxi Ramrocket at K3 in Storm Peaks for total cost of 12500 and are available for sale only to engineers able to craft this item. There are some reports that skilled engineers can obtain parts sold by Roxi Ramrocket from mechanical corpses from Ulduar, such as Flame Leviathan

The license plate is "PWN".

If the driver enters a phased area that is different to the passenger's phase, then the passenger phases out but the sidecar remains deployed. The passenger sees the driver, though. If either dismount in a differently phased area, the driver sees the passenger briefly appear, then both phase out on each other's screens.

Patch changes

Patch 3.1.0 (2009-04-14): This mount is no longer considered a vehicle.

Now fully a mount, with fall damage, instant mount/dismount, and swimming ability.

+<!--This is a very special mount, in the sense that it works exactly like a mountable vehicle. Thus, it is considered a "pet". Due to this, it differs significantly from regular mounts in several ways.
+-->*The components that can't be made, or skinned, can be purchased from {{npc||Roxi Ramrocket}} at [[K3]] in [[Storm Peaks]] for total cost of {{cost|12500}} and are available for sale only to engineers able to craft this item.

+* When the rider or passengers fall a significant distance, the resulting fall damage is resisted entirely by the mount. The player and its passengers take no damage.
+* As it is a vehicle, there is also a 0.5-second boarding animation associated with summoning and dismissing the mount, during which the player cannot move or take any actions.
+* While mounted, a player cannot use most spells, abilities, or items that typically dismount the player, even if the option is enabled in the interface options menu. They must first dismount by casting the mount summon spell, using the dismiss option in the right-click menu of the mount's portrait, or removing the buff, before they can take any other actions.
+* The rider or passenger may help complete a summoning ritual, but can't start one.
