Cycle Rider is fairly obscure but there is evidence of it having been exported outside Japan.
We can find an entry for it in the 1972 Machine directory:
One mystery around Cycle Rider is the appearance of an exact copy but with a wildly psychedelic paint job. This photo, which features a machine by Oriental Kogyo that is an obvious repaint of another company's machine (please see: Phantom-F-108 [Phantom II-108] by オリエンタル興業 (Oriental Kogyo)) is extremely curious and it makes me think that this painted Cycle Rider is the work of Oriental Kogyo as well:

| unknown game [same cabinet design as Cycle Rider - サイクルライダー by 太東 (Taito)] by unknown |
Every detail of that cabinet we can see appears to be exact to Cycle Rider, suggesting to me it was just repainted in a manner similar to Phantom-F-108.
