The Western Rat Bike is a motorcycle featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Bikers update.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Rat Bike's appearance is based on the Harley Davidson KKF 14, seen particularly in the front girder design and springer front end, the primary drive, front sprocket, brake rotor and caliper, as well as the large V-twin engine. It shares the same real life design influence with the Wolfsbane, the Harley Davidson 1200).
The bike is essentially a rusted/worn variant of the Wolfsbane, with rusty frames and main components, along with the removal of livery options. The vehicle also sports a dedicated "Rat Bike" dial texture, which is the same "Chopper" dial but with a broken glass (albeit still functional). Like most motorcycles featured in the same update, it has a protruding primary drive with an Atomic-branded belt and a chain drive, both fully-animated.
Color distribution is the same as the regular Wolfsbane, with the primary one being applied to the fuel/oil tanks and the rear fender, and the secondary one on the forks, handlebars, frame and swingarm. It also uses a rusty version of the Wolfsbane's wheels.

Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
Despite its seemingly rusted-out appearance, the Rat Bike is identical to the Wolfsbane, with average speed but seemingly poor turning radius.
Like the standard Wolfsbane, the Rat Bike uses a chain-driven, V-twin internal combustion engine with a 5-speed manual transmission, as evidenced by the foot-actuated gear shifter. Its engine sound is the same as the Wolfsbane, being a variation of the one used on the Zombie Chopper and its Bobber variant, with an extra louder engine tone.
Statistic-wise, it is identical to the Wolfsbane, as both shares the same weight, top speed and acceleration.
Installing any "Belt Drive Cover" modification will increase its traction slightly, in the same way as a spoiler.

- No longer available; removed from the website as part of the San Andreas Mercenaries update.
Radio Stations[]
- In Grand Theft Auto Online, the default radio stations are grouped by genre. The Rat Bike uses the "Rock" group which can play:
- Los Santos Rock Radio
- Radio Mirror Park
- Kult FM (Enhanced Editions only)
- Vinewood Boulevard Radio (May not play due to a three station limit within the group)
Trivia[]
General[]
- Similar to the Gargoyle, by applying a larger rim to the rear wheel, the Rat Bike will become glitched. If the rider is performing a wheelie, the bike's rear wheel will be etched into the ground, giving the bike a constant and tremendous speed boost.
