The Western Motorcycle Company Bagger is a motorcycle featured in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
Design
The Bagger's design seems to be based on the 2013 Harley Davidson Touring Road Glide Custom, albeit with much smaller and basic batwing fairing and a gas tank that instead resembles those used by Victory Motorcycles.
The design of the motorcycle is very similar to the Freeway, only featuring minor changes to its bodywork. The front section features a painted mudguard with chrome trim on the lower borders, attached directly to the chrome forks. The upper area is predominated by a rounded fairing with dual circular headlights behind a glass casing and a glass visor on top, while the handlebars are attached to the upper clamp/plate by two support frames.
The main body features a black dual frame with silver/chrome frame and foot pads on the front, as well as a wide fuel tank similar to the one of The Lost and Damned iteration of the Nightblade, rounded panels beside the oil tank and a black leather seat similar to the one of the Wolfsbane, with room for two occupants. The engine bay features an oval-shaped air filter and two exhaust pipes on the right side, which come from each cylinder block and merge into one single pipe. The top of the fuel tank features a single black analog dial, where in the enhanced version, uses the "Chopper Bike" dial set also shared with the Daemon and the Police Bike.
The rear section consist of a curved fender with part of the leather seat over it, silver/chrome frames on the sides and a single square tail light on the rear end, while large panniers are seen beside the rear fender, with the right one holding a license plate. The rear wheel is connected to the rest of the vehicle by a black two-sided swingarm, supported by two suspension springs attached to the side frames and having small foot pegs for the passenger. The chain drive and sprocket are seen on the left, while the exhaust pipe is seen on the right.
The Bagger spawns in a variety of single colors on the entirety of the motorcycle, being the fenders, fairing, fuel tank, side body panels and side panniers. It also uses a set of chromed rims similar to the "Loops" rims available in Los Santos Customs and low-profile tires, with the rear one being slightly wider.
Performance
The Bagger is, overall, fairly underwhelming. Its acceleration lags behind other motorcycles, even when fully upgraded, and is one of two motorcycles that, when fully upgraded, does not max out the acceleration stat (the other being the Faggio). Top speed is reasonable, but not able to keep up with virtually any other motorcycle. The cornering radius is reasonably wide, and usually requires braking of some amount. This motorcycle is, overall, a good touring motorcycle and good for cruising as it is smooth and easy to control, but feels underpowered compared to other motorcycles.
The Bagger is powered by a V-Twin engine claimed to have a displacement of 140cui (2.3L), coupled to a 4-speed gearbox. The Bagger uses a low-revving, odd-firing engine sound similar to the one found on the Hexer and the Daemon. However, it seems to emit a louder tone similar to the one found on the Police Bike and the Sovereign.

Prominent Appearances in Gameplay
Grand Theft Auto V
- Repossession – Franklin Clinton and Lamar Davis are tasked with repossessing a Bagger owned by a Vagos gang member Esteban Jimenez in Vespucci Beach. Due to them killing the owner, they cannot return it to Simeon, so Lamar keeps the bike privately. Later, he gives it to Franklin. After these events, this bike becomes one of the default vehicles for Franklin, along with the Buffalo S.
Grand Theft Auto Online
- Short Trip - Fire It Up – Franklin races using his Bagger against Lamar who uses his upgraded Emperor.
Notable Owners
- Franklin Clinton owns a metallic Bright Green Bagger, with the license plate "FC88", unlocked at the end of Repossession.
- The same Bagger can later be seen in Grand Theft Auto Online, albeit with Long Twin Exhaust, Custom Frame, and Fuel Tank 1 modifications, as well as "Racer" wheels. It is occasionally parked in the GTA Online Protagonist's Agency Garage.

Trivia
General
- The Bagger is implied to be one of the motorcycles used by The Lost MC, although it is not a chopper (the proof of it being a gang motorcycle is taken from the Underbelly of Paradise TV show in-game, where it is seen being used by The Lost MC members). This is confirmed by its occasional spawn location in Stab City.
Grand Theft Auto V and Online
- If the player manages to access Beeker's Garage in Paleto Bay on foot, and walks into the small office area on the left of the garage, a manual[2] for the Bagger can be seen which erroneously sports a Principe logo rather than a Western one.
Grand Theft Auto Online
- The Bagger's side profile is used as the diagram for almost all motorcycles on the Rockstar Games Social Club vehicle viewer.
- After the Bikers update, the crew emblem was moved from the top of the tank to the sides of the fairing, showing up (often distorted) on the upper forks when the fairing is removed.
- In the job room of a clubhouse, the player can see a beta version of the Bagger in a picture[3] near the notice board that has a sissy bar which cannot be modified on the Bagger in the game.
