Sanchez
- For the rare color version of the Sanchez in GTA VC, see Black Sanchez.
The Sanchez is one of the original motorcyles on the GTA III series of games, and was first seen on Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. It has been featured on all games following Vice City. It is the only dirtbike on all of the GTA III era games, excluding the Manchez, making it a special, and very appreciated vehicle throughout players of the games. It can also be used for stunting due to its very light weight compared to the other motorcycles. The Sanchez is also sometimes used in the Stadium(s) in Vice City and San Andreas, as part of a side-mission. They can be found driving on the streets of the rural areas in the GTA series. The Sanchez is based on the Injusa KR 350 dirt bike. It spawns in the countryside and various locations in the games. Its name and the fact that it is a dirtbike, may be a subtle poke at the "Dirty Sanchez" sexual maneuver.
Black Sanchez
In GTA VC three unique Sanchez dirt bikes appeared in the side mission "Trial By Dirt". While the player races around the dirt track with the Sanchez, Three black Sanchez dirt bikes ridden by Haitian gang member chase the player around with Machetes and are easy to kill, but try to avoid the red barrels dotted around the track as they explode on contact. The Black Sanchez is easy to obtain, but it's handling and speed remains the same, apart from it's rare paint job.
GTA IV rendition
Though it's model remains unchanged (apart from it's newer engine sound), it is still best suited for off-roading. If going fast on the streets, slow down when approaching junctions. Vehicles may unexpectedly appear, speeding by and causing you to slam into them head-on, causing you to fly off of your bike and sustain damage. When going off-road, remember not to go too fast, unless there are less hazards. The Sanchez is now located at an old abandoned mansion in Westdyke, Beaverhead Ave. It is not found too often on the road otherwise.
