Standard Equipment:
<tabber>
|-|Transformation Device=
=== Arcle ===
The Sonic Wave Transformation Belt Arcle (ソニックウェーブ 変身ベルト アークル, Sonikku Wēbu Henshin Beruto Ākuru) is Kamen Rider Kuuga's transformation belt.
An ancient belt created by the Linto Tribe, it is capable of strengthening its wearer and create a biological armor for them to use in combat, but is only usable to those with a righteous heart to prevent abuse of the belt's power. Originally used by the ancient Kuuga, Riku, it was inherited by Yusuke Godai in the year 2000 when he was attacked by Xu·Gmun·Ba, with the belt immediately fused into his body after he put it on. When he transforms, it reappears around his waist and is always the same color as his current form. A stone embedded in the belt, called Amadam (アマダム, Amadamu), is the source of Kuuga's power and is able to extend the lifespan of a person. The Amadam is also present on Daguva, the Gouram, and Gamio as well. When Kuuga is imbued with the Golden Power and upgrades into his Rising forms, the Rising Arcle Armor (ライジングアークルアーマー, Raijingu Ākuru Āmā) forms over the Arcle, causing the Amadam to transform into a golden color. When Kuuga transforms into his Ultimate forms, the Rising Arcle Armor upgrades even further into the Ultimate Arcle Armor (アルティメットアークルアーマー, Arutimetto Ākuru Āmā). In this state, the Amadam turns black, while the rectangular tiles that line horizontally across the belt turn silver.
KRKu-Arcle.png|Arcle
|-|Regular Weapons=
=== Dragon Rod ===
To make up for the lack of strength, Kamen Rider Kuuga Dragon Form uses the Dragon Rod (ドラゴンロッド, Doragon Roddo) staff as his weapon, which is created whenever Kuuga is using any pole or stick-like object to manifest it. His finishing move with the Dragon Rod is known as the Splash Dragon.
=== Pegasus Bowgun ===
The Pegasus Bowgun (ペガサスボウガン, Pegasasu Bougan) is a crossbow exclusively for Kamen Rider Kuuga Pegasus Form, created by picking up something that makes him imagine "an objects that shoot through" such as gun-like object, commonly Ichijo's handgun. Pull the Trigger Lever (トリガーレバー, Torigā Rebā) on the butt of the gun once to narrow down the aim, absorb the air energy from the muzzle, and release the Trigger Lever to shoot the air bullet Pegasus Arrow (ペガサスアロー, Pegasasu Arō) with the sealed energy compressed. The Rinto hieroglyphics of "Gale" indicating Pegasus Form is drawn on the spirit stone embedded in the rear of the muzzle, and the barrel is repeatedly engraved with the Rinto hieroglyphics: "Come! It's a Pegasus' bow that can fly high in the sky!"
=== Titan Sword ===
The Titan Sword (タイタンソード, Taitan Sōdo) is an extendable two-handed, straight-bladed, double-edged sword used by Kamen Rider Kuuga Titan Form that can be created out of pole or stick-like objects, normally the control handle of his bike. His finishing move with the Titan Sword is known as Calamity Titan (カラミティタイタン, Karamiti Taitan), which is a powerful sword thrust wherein Kuuga twists the blade as it is impaled.

|-|Rising Weapons=
=== Mighty Anklet ===
The Mighty Anklet (マイティアンクレット, Maiti Ankuretto) is a golden greave which is used on Kamen Rider Kuuga Rising Mighty's right foot. It upgrades his Mighty Kick into the Rising Mighty Kick, which causes the target to explode with the blast radius of a few city blocks. Kuuga's Rising Mighty was advanced into the black-armored Amazing Mighty (アメージングマイティ, Amējingu Maiti), with a second Mighty Anklet equipped onto his left foot to use in a more powerful Amazing Mighty Kick, which causes the target to explode in a flaming pillar that almost pierced the atmosphere.
=== Rising Dragon Rod ===
After Dragon Form is upgraded by the golden power into Rising Dragon (ライジングドラゴン, Raijingu Doragon), Kuuga gains a golden trim with his weapon being enhanced into the Rising Dragon Rod (ライジングドラゴンロッド, Raijingu Doragon Roddo) voulge, giving it the appearance of a twin-ended spear, improving the Dragon Splash finishing move into the Rising Splash Dragon.
=== Rising Pegasus Bowgun ===
The Rising Pegasus Bowgun (ライジングペガサスボウガン, Raijingu Pegasasu Bougan) is the Pegasus Bowgun that has been enhanced and deformed with a golden bayonet with the Rising Power (ライジングパワー, Raijingu Pawā) on the top of the barrel, once Kuuga upgrades to Rising Pegasus Form. The Rinto hieroglyphics engraved on the additional part means "Add the power of lightning to calm the wickedness." Like the Pegasus Bowgun, weapons such as bows and guns can be used to transform into the Rising Pegasus Bowgun by receiving the Morphing Power (モーフィングパワー, Mōfingu Pawā) released from Kuuga's hands. The shooting range is greatly extended and continuous rapid fire is possible, and several Pegasus Arrows are fired with one shot.
=== Rising Titan Sword ===
After assuming Rising Titan, Kuuga uses the Rising Titan Sword (ライジングタイタンソード, Raijingu Taitan Sōdo) for the Rising Calamity Titan (ライジングカラミティタイタン, Raijingu Karamiti Taitan) finisher. He can also create a second Rising Titan Sword to use in the Double Rising Calamity Titan (ダブルライジングカラミティタイタン, Daburu Raijingu Karamiti Taitan) attack.

=== Trychaser 2000 ===
The Trychaser 2000 (トライチェイサー２０００, Torai Cheisā Nisen) (TRCS 2000) is Kuuga's personal dirt bike. A new model of a police motorcycle, it was designed to be faster and powerful than the conventional bikes utilized by the police force. Its other unique feature is its activation: To activate it requires both the Tryacceler (トライアクセラー, Torai Akuserā) rod, the bike's right handlebar that functions as a start-up key, and a four-digit keycode. Ichijo would give the prototype to Yusuke, believing he is the only one who can successfully beat the Unidentified Lifeforms. Yusuke would later alter Trychaser 2000's color scheme via a keycode, giving it its signature red, white, and gold look.
=== Beatchaser 2000 ===
The Beatchaser 2000 (ビートチェイサー２０００, Bīto Cheisā Nisen) (aka. BTCS 2000) is an upgraded model to the Trychaser 2000, designed specifically for Kuuga. It is faster and more durable than the TRCS 2000 model and more resistant to the metal corrosion caused by Gouram. Yusuke first utilized this motorcycle in order to track down and defeat Go·Badaa·Ba. The Police Department was hesitant to give this to Kuuga due to his Rising Mighty form. Like the Trychaser 2000, this vehicle was also upgradable by Gouram and even Kuuga's golden power. Due to it being faster than the TRCS 2000 model, it is equipped with a parachute module for additional power for the brakes. According to Hikari Enokida, the BTCS' activation code is Number 4's date of birth.
=== Gouram ===
The Armor Machine Gouram (装甲機 ゴウラム, Sōkō-ki Gōramu) is a mysterious stag-beetle-like entity formed from fragments found at the original excavation site at the beginning of the story of Kamen Rider Kuuga. To the Linto, these beetles were considered servants of the gods. After its initial formation, the Gouram assimilated various other metals as it made its way to Tokyo in its search for the current Kuuga. It assists Kuuga in various capacities such as aerial transportation and becoming Barding for Yusuke Godai's bike, however, after being used for a certain amount of time, it returns back to its shattered fragments until Yusuke revives it by touching its Amadam. It is very maneuverable and capable of a top airspeed of 500km/h (310.69mph). However, since being exposed to the golden power, Gouram returns back to the Police Science Division in a different color and in one piece. On Gouram's claw, the following is inscribed: "The warrior and his servant join hands, giving rise to a grand future." Kuuga grabs onto Gouram's claw and is lifted into the air, allowing flight.
==== Trygouram ====
The Fusion Machine Trygouram (融合マシン トライゴウラム, Yūgō Mashin Toraigōramu) is the result of Gouram attaching to the Trychaser 2000 as armor. While in this form the bike is faster and capable of ramming opponents via the Try Gouram Attack in a similar manner to Kuuga's Mighty Kick.
==== Beatgouram ====
The Beatgouram (ビートゴウラム, Bīto Gōramu), like Try Gouram, is the combination of the Beatchaser 2000 and the Gouram which results in an even more powerful vehicle for Kuuga. It bears a similar resemblance with Trygouram except for the longer handle (which appear like horns), darker interior and the side guards from the Beatchaser 2000.
==== Rising Beatgouram ====
The Rising Beatgouram (ライジングビートゴウラム, Raijingu Bīto Gōramu) is the result of Kuuga combining the golden power with the Beatgouram. Unlike its Trychaser 2000 incarnation, the Gouram returns to the National Research Institute of Police Science when inactive, now intact and in a different color. It was used only once in Episode 42 in order to destroy Go·Babel·Da, using the Body Attack (ボディアタック, Bodī Atakku) ramming technique named by Yusuke himself.
