Yakuza Kiwami 3 Street Surfer: How to Get It
In brief
The Street Surfer is a fun vehicle to unlock in Yakuza Kiwami 3 by completing a side quest with Oka. Although limited to 10 seconds before it explodes, it can be progressively upgraded by paying 10,000 yen per upgrade to reduce the risk of detonation.
In Yakuza Kiwami 3, getting around can become a lot more enjoyable once Kiryu gets his own vehicle: the Street Surfer. Although slower and less advanced than a car or a motorcycle, it's a handy alternative for exploring the city. In this article, we'll explain how to get and upgrade your Street Surfer.

How to unlock the Street Surfer in Yakuza Kiwami 3
You'll first need to start a side quest to unlock the vehicle: you must meet Oka, a major figure in Kiryu's story, during a secret scene on W Ryuku Blvd, heading northeast. Once the scene is over, you'll gain access to the side mission "The Next-Gen Dream Machine".
After this exchange, you'll find Oka in a tricky spot, being bothered by three overly affectionate men on the Ryukyu Central Hwy. A fight will then break out, and once you win the battle, Oka will give you the Street Surfer, a vehicle you can summon at any time by pressing the down button on the D-Pad.
Note
Careful, the Street Surfer has a limited lifespan of 10 seconds before it explodes. It's harmless, and you'll be able to summon a new one right after.

How to upgrade the Street Surfer in Yakuza Kiwami 3
Sure, the Street Surfer is a particularly fun vehicle, but its frequent explosions can get tiresome after a while... However, there is a way to upgrade the Street Surfer: you'll simply need to use it several times. After a few rides, a message from Oka will appear inviting you to come see him again on Ryukyu Central Hwy.
He'll offer you an upgrade for the Street Surfer for a price of 10,000 yen. Each upgrade will require an additional 10,000 yen, but nothing will stop you from making it better and more reliable going forward, as this process can be repeated. The more you upgrade it, the lower the risk of it exploding!
