- "There aren't many who've pushed a Hakuchou Drag to the limits of its performance, but you can tell when you meet one: the thousand mile stare, the still-clenched teeth, the thin trickle of blood descending from their now useless ears. It's an exclusive club - you belong there in spirit, now pay up and make it a reality."
- ―Legendary Motorsport description.
The Shitzu Hakuchou Drag (formerly named Hakuchou Custom) is a drag bike featured in the downloadable episodic pack The Lost and Damned, and added to Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Bikers update.

The Lost and Damned
- "The true "King of Bling". This ultra long and lowered chromed behemoth is capable of blistering acceleration thanks to its drag-inspired swingarm and race prepped engine turning out in the region of 250bhp.
Form over function however means that you might struggle to bring it back down again - the single front 330mm brake disc ain t gonna clamp this bitch easy. At least the crowds who gather to see the wreckage will enjoy the un-interrupted view of the chromed front wheel! Yeah!" - ―Uptown Riders website description.
The Hakuchou Custom is a modified version of the Hakuchou, featuring a custom paintwork resembling stitched skin. Aesthetics modifications include shaved mirrors, short exhausts, custom chrome wheels and frame, and a stretched swingarm.

Returning to GTA Online, the bike remains relatively the same, although the rear swing-arm is completely exposed and is extended even further, along with a much wider wheel.
Compared to its previous iteration, as well as the standard Hakuchou, the frame is coloured and most of the fairing is painted in a primary colour, while the details around the fairing, the frame, and the swingarm are painted in secondary. The vehicle no longer sports a rustic livery appearance and instead, different liveries can be applied, which are available at Los Santos Customs. Furthermore, it has visual modifications available which are not found on the original Hakuchou (as well as a front mudguard and exhausts from the aforementioned bike).

Performance
The Lost and Damned
According to the Uptown Riders' website, it is exclusively tuned for drag races with modifications including a prepped up 1300cc engine producing around 250bhp, a lowered ride and a lighter front 330mm brake disc. The exhaust also appears to be unrestricted. It is capable of reaching a high top speed. Be aware that this high amount power makes it very sensitive to hard throttle, and prone to wheelspin.

The bike retains its tremendous speed, however it suffers from understeer at high speeds. The suspension is relatively susceptible to bumps in the roads. Its handling and speed is vastly improved from its TLaD counterpart, though it cannot perform wheelies in any way due to its extended swingarm. Furthermore, its back wheel is exposed to gunfire so it is highly advised that the player equips bulletproof tires if they plan to use it in freemode. All in all, it is proven to be a worthy competitor for races that can compete against other faster bikes.
The Hakuchou Drag is powered by an Inline-4 engine, evidenced by the four exhaust pipes coming from the engine itself. It is coupled to a 6-speed gearbox.

Prominent Appearances in Missions
Grand Theft Auto Online
Four Hakuchou Drags are seen outside the casino in the mission Casino - House Keeping, owned by a biker group.
Locations
The Lost and Damned
The Hakuchou Custom is hard to find, as it does not appear commonly on the streets.
- It can be stolen from DeSean after Malc's first random encounter. DeSean is seen driving off on the bike after the mission is complete — if the player quickly catches up to him with a car or bike, the player can kill or dismount DeSean and take the bike. This will not affect the storyline — as the mission is complete, DeSean will be considered a pedestrian.
- Sometimes, the Hakuchou Custom will appear randomly on the streets while driving to DeSean's location, being driven by pedestrians or parked near the sidewalks.
- The Hakuchou Custom may spawn in races if the player is riding a Hakuchou.
- The easiest way to obtain it is after the mission Heavy Toll. It will be parked in front of Pretty Boy's garage after the mission, almost hidden by the nearest bushes.
- Can be spawned by dialing (245)-555-0199 on the phone.
Grand Theft Auto Online
- Can be purchased from Legendary Motorsport for $976,000.
Trivia
General
- The default radio stations for the Hakuchou Custom are:
- TLAD: Electro-Choc or Radio Broker
- GTA Online: Radio Mirror Park, Vinewood Boulevard Radio, and Los Santos Rock Radio.
The Lost and Damned
- The Hakuchou Custom is named the Hakuchou Drag on the Uptown Rider's website. This is presumably its beta name in TLAD; the name was reused when the bike was reintroduced in GTA Online: Bikers.
- As with most vehicles with textures rather than colors, when the Hakuchou Custom is taken to the Pay 'n' Spray and repaired, white fumes come from the spray shop as if it was painted white.
