GTA Online: 5 fastest motorcycles in the game

Cars have always captured the imagination of GTA players but for those passionate about living dangerously in the game, their go-to has always been the bikes. Bikes are extremely dangerous in GTA Online as they have little to no protection from gunfire and can easily be run over.

However, what they lack in endurance and durability, they make up for with their looks and their relentless pursuit of speed. GTA Online is packed to the brim with some truly creative bikes that are capable of tearing down the highway in a single stretch.

These are the fastest bikes in the game, based solely on Top Speed.

The only question is, which side of the glass do you want to be on?"

Top Speed: 140.00 mph (225.31 km/h)

1) Deathbike

The Deathbike remains the fastest bike in GTA Online and by a long mile. Some would even argue that it is the fastest land vehicle in the entire game. The Deathbike comes in various variations such as the Future Shock, Apocalypse and Nightmare.

The Deathbike is extremely easy to control, making it the perfect blend between speed and utility. The bike can be fitted with a shield to protect the player from gunfire at the back. The Deathbike is essentially the Gargoyle that has been modified in the Arena War workshop.

However, the player is vulnerable to being attacked from the front as well as the sides or can simply be run over in the Deathbike in GTA Online.

Price: Unlocked by upgrading the Gargoyle ($120,000)

Top Speed: 150.00 mph (241.40 km/h)
