 == Performance ==
-The Akuma's aggressive styling is matched by its raw power and high performance. While its overpowered rear torque and unreliable gear shifting hampers stability and the bike's otherwise good acceleration, the bike is second fastest motorcycle in GTA IV canon thus far, behind the [[Hakuchou Custom]]. The Akuma also allows the player to tilt the bike sideways much lower in turns, allowing the bike to negotiate sharper corners at higher speeds; alternately, its rear torque can occasionally trigger the bike to drift sharply against the player's will.

-These traits, however, work against the Akuma's brakes, which, while still excellent, are not adequate when in higher speeds; the brakes are only effective when used to slow down a bike in high speeds or to completely stop a bike from moderately high speeds. At higher speeds, the bike tends to require a substantial braking distance.
+These traits, however, work against the Akuma's brakes, which, while still excellent, are only effective when used to slow down a bike in up to a moderately high speed or to completely stop a bike from moderately high speeds. At higher speeds, the bike tends to require a substantial braking distance.
 ==Trivia==
 * "Akuma" is the name of a demon from Japanese mythology.
 * Although the Akuma may come with a rear seat configuration that has no brake light, players can still see red illuminations on surfaces behind the bike when braking or when riding at night.
-* The Akuma suffers from the color glitch with [[Spray Shops in GTA IV|Pay 'n' Spray]], when it will permanently lock onto a dark red color if the player tries to respray it.
+* The Akuma tunes in to [[Radio Broker]] or [[Electro-Choc]] by default when first ridden by the player.

 * The player can spawn the Akuma by dialing in the [[Cheats in GTA IV|cheat code]]: 625-555-0200. Using the cheat code is the only way to obtain an Akuma, as they do not normally spawn on the streets.
