The Wayfarer is a motorcycle that appears in two different forms in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and The Lost and Damned.

Description

GTA San Andreas

In GTA San Andreas, the Wayfarer is a touring-style motorcycle based on the Honda Goldwing.

It is one of the slowest motorcycles in the game, only faster than the Faggio and its variant, the Pizza Boy; however with this, it is also the most stable at higher speeds. It is a heavy motorcycle, thus completing any stunts varying from a wheelie to a stoppie is virtually impossible.

The Lost and Damned

A Wayfarer in The Lost and Damned.

In The Lost and Damned, the Wayfarer, indicated to be manufactured by the Western Motorcycle Company, resembles a more traditional chopper similar to the Angel (also based on a Harley-Davidson Panhead), but sports distinguishable accessories, such as beige, braid-trimmed seating (complete with an Angels Of Death insignia), beige handlebars and unique rear license plate with "Angels of Death" writing and logo.

Like the Angel, the Wayfarer's engine power is the poorest among all TLAD choppers (although not considerably bad overall), being capable of going from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.6 seconds, and reaching a top speed of 216 km/h. However, while still as heavy as choppers in the game (300 kg), the Wayfarer lower torque allows the it to corner more easily.

The Wayfarer is an Angels Of Death gang vehicle, as already evidenced by the aforementioned insignia on its seat.

Locations

GTA San Andreas
The Lost and Damned
  • The easiest way to obtain the Wayfarer in the entire game is in the mission Liberty City Choppers. After the player drives to the Angels of Death clubhouse and the brief cutscene ends, the player can steal it and drive the motorcycle to his parking space. Note: Once the player drives a short distance the player will fail the mission and a message will say "Jim is Dead".
  • On extremely rare occasions it will spawn around the Angels of Death Clubhouse in North Holland/Northwood if the player is riding a chopper not associated with The Angels of Death (i.e. a Hexer, Revenant, Lycan or Diabolus).
