after the mecha suit was destroyed, robert picks up a motorcycle as his vehicle to get around, using it to stalk his enemies to then later return as mecha man and take them down. he doesn't use typical mecha man colors, but wears a blue-striped motorcycle jacket and a black helmet instead.
one rainy day, robert is stalking a car of low level red ring members, but his tire slips on the wet road when he speeds up. he doesn't crash, but is forced to divert, struggling to stay on two wheels and he almost falls, but someone swoops in and steadies him just in time. robert tries to see if he can still keep up with the car, but it's long gone.
robert pretty much fell into the arms of a stranger, so he quickly makes an apology as he gets off the bike. the man doesn't mind, and instead starts flirting with him. robert assumes it's the bike, it tends to have that effect on people (<- wrong, it's the leather-clad twink on top of it).
the guy says it's "too bad they got away", which robert flusters at, saying he wasn't following anyone, but the man just rolls his eyes and says he was gonna get a drink, and if robert will come?
they get a drink, and talk, and then the guy, chad, invites him for a smoke. robert doesnt really smoke, but he shares a cig with chad in the alley. he isn't sure who kissed who first, but the next moment he's pressed against the wall with his fingers in chad's hair and chad's heated hands tugging at his bike leathers.
unfortunately, they get interrupted by a call from chad's coworker he has to answer (he doesn't stop exploring the side of robert's neck and jaw with his mouth tho) robert tries not to listen in, but he picks up some kind of emergency, and chad, who the woman calls "bae" (fuck, he hopes he's not helping this guy cheat), has to come now.
they stop, but not before chad crowds him to the wall and tells him if he ever sees him again, they're going to pick up right where they left off (alright... mark robert down as scared and horny). then they both leave.
robert doesn't see the man for weeks, not until he comes into the SDN for his new job as a dispatcher and runs into... flambae.
-> robert is known as "that biker baddie" to prism from when chad talked about him
-> robert lives out of the mecha man suit in a storage unit; it's the only way he can still afford the motorcycle and store both securely.
-> he's a mechanic, though specifically of his own suit and bike
-> the z-team thinks he's some kind of motorcycle vigilante
-> various members have tried to either steal his bike or hitch a ride
