The Wayfarer is a motorcycle that appears in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and The Lost and Damned. It is manufactured by the Western Motorcycle Company in the latter.
Design
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the Wayfarer is a touring-style motorcycle based on the Harley Davidson Road Glide and Honda Goldwing.
The Lost and Damned
The Wayfarer is based on a Harley-Davidson FXDWG Dyna Wide Glide.
In The Lost and Damned, the Wayfarer resembles a more traditional bike, similar to the Angel, but sports distinguishable accessories, such as a beige, tasseled seat (complete with an Angels of Death insignia), beige grips, apehanger styled bars, and unique rear license plate with "Angels of Death" writing and logo. The vehicle also incorporates a rear view mirror mounted on the left handlebar.
The Wayfarer is an Angels of Death gang vehicle, as already evidenced by the aforementioned insignia on its seat.
Performance
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
The Wayfarer 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. Its heavy weight makes it an undesirable motorcycle for attempting stunt.
The Wayfarer uses a longitudinally-mounted, single-cam V4 petrol engine, coupled to a four-speed gearbox.

The Lost and Damned
Like the Angel, the Wayfarer's engine power is the poorest among all TLAD choppers (although not considerably bad overall), given the V-twin engine coupled to a 5-speed gearbox. However, while still as heavy as choppers in the game (300 kg), the lower torque allows it to corner more easily.

Trivia
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
- Like the HPV1000, its engine sound is a slowed down version of the PCJ-600.
- As a touring motorcycle with a front fairing, the Wayfarer, along with the WinterGreen in GTA Vice City Stories, are the only two motorcycles in the Grand Theft Auto series that would realistically have a built-in radio.
Grand Theft Auto IV
- The Wayfarer in TLAD does not feature a license plate, rendering it illegal for the road.
- Together with the Innovation, they are the only choppers that have not been cut from the original game and have been featured as completely new vehicles in TLAD.
- It shares the same engine and horn sound as the Daemon.
Grand Theft Auto V
- The bike is absent from Grand Theft Auto V; however, a police scanner file named "0x176CDE99" mentions it, indicating a possible appearance in the beta.
- The Daemon can be customized in Los Santos Customs to heavily resemble the TLAD version of the Wayfarer, including the fuel tank, seats, mirror and rims.
