==Notes==
*The base vehicle for filming is .Kanzen. (2010). "Heisei Kamen Rider Eiyuden". p. 169. ISBN 978-4-86255-082-8.
*It was used by TheBee and Drake in the TV series. In the movie, it was used by Hercus and Drake.
*It seems that there are also bikes for Sasword, KickHopper, and PunchHopper that do not appear in the series. <Televi-kun Deluxe Favorite Edition>. (2007). "Kamen Rider Kabuto Chozenshu". p. 35. ISBN 978-4-09-105115-8.
*It is difficult to say that the above various functions are fully utilized in the series. TheBee uses Machine Zectron only as a means of transportation to the battlefield, and the shooting from the vehicle that Drake demonstrated is not a tactic that makes use of the characteristics of the vehicle. This is because the development concept of Machine Zectron emphasizes versatility and does not consider the individuality of each Rider.
*In the toy, the hood parts can be replaced, and Kabuto's ZECT Mark that did not appear in the series was added, and in some cases, special hood parts were attached to each Rider's figure released at that time.
*It was remodeled into the Ixalion for Kamen Rider Ixa, which appeared in Kamen Rider Kiva. <DETAIL OF HEROES>. (2009). "Kamen Rider Kiva Tokusatsu Photobook CREST of KIVA". p. 47. ISBN 978-4-89425-810-5.
