The Shitzu Vader is a motorcycle featured in The Ballad of Gay Tony, and in the upcoming title Grand Theft Auto V.

Although the Shitzu logo cannot be found on the bike itself, the police refer to it as a "Shitzu Vader" over their radio.

DescriptionEdit

DesignEdit

The bike may possibly be based on the Suzuki SV1000. It may also be based on a Kawasaki Z1000.

PerformanceEdit

The Vader has a great top speed, but a bad acceleration and brakes. The bike is very good for tricks because of its low brakes (so you can easily drive on the back or front wheel).

VariantsEdit

There are two variations of this bike. One (pictured above) has twin exhausts mounted under the seat, and no license plate; while the other has large twin side exhausts and a Liberty City license plate.

TriviaEdit

• The name is an obvious nod to Darth Vader, the main antagonist of the Star Wars movies.

• Vader is Dutch for the word "Father".
• Vader is the name of a Brutal Death Metal band from Olsztyn, Poland.
• The Vader is the only motorcyle to appear in the GTA V trailer.
