During production of episode 10, Hiroshi Fujioka fractured his thigh bone in a motorcycle stunt gone wrong and was out of commission. Stunt doubles (with voice actor Rokuro Naya doing Hongo's voice) took his place between episodes 11-13 until Toei decided to replace him with Takeshi Sasaki and introduce Hayato Ichimonji/Kamen Rider #2. Fujioka returned as Hongo/Kamen Rider #1 on episodes 40, 41, 49, 51 and 52 before staying full-time starting on episode 53.
In episode 14, Hayato Ichimonji first executed the henshin pose, transforming him into Kamen Rider #2. Shortly after Takeshi Hongo had his cybernetics upgraded, he executed his own henshin pose to transform into Kamen Rider #1. Since then, henshin poses have become an integral part of nearly all tokusatsu shows.
