“Get her dirty. She loves it. Cover her with dirt. Take her to vile places she has never been before. Pop wheelies. Get crazy. Woof.”
— Southern San Andreas Super Autos description.
The Maibatsu Sanchez (livery) (formerly Sanchez) is a dirtbike featured in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto V and Online[]
The bike is essentially a Sanchez with specific liveries not available in the standard model. It does not use a body color and instead it is determined by the livery's base color, accompanied by racing numbers on the front and rear sides. The bike retains the "Sanchez" decals, although the front one is always in a red color.
All liveries feature various sponsors, which are:
- Atomic (appearing as a minor sponsor on the other liveries beside the "Atomic Tires" one)
- Auto Cowboys
- Endo
- Maibatsu Corporation
- Pure Lube
- Terroil
- Xero
Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto V and Online[]
“I studied the route and I'm not an idiot - these are the best bikes for the terrain.”
— Eddie Toh, if selected for The Jewel Store Job.
The Sanchez livery performs exactly the same as the regular Sanchez, bearing a high top speed and acceleration rate. Pulling wheelies also takes less effort, albeit with more risk of pulling a wheelie too quickly upon set-off, risking the player falling off. The Sanchez can climb near-vertical hills, although the more vertical the player goes, the slower the Sanchez will perform.
Like the standard Sanchez, the bike is powered by a single-cylinder engine and coupled to a 4-speed gearbox. The engine sound is the same as the standard Sanchez.
