Template:Infobox vehicles
Not to be confused with the Nightshade, a muscle car in Grand Theft Auto Online.
The Liberty Chop Shop/Western Motorcycle Company Nightblade is a cruiser motorcycle featured in The Lost and Damned and Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Bikers update.
Design
The Lost and Damned
The Nightblade appears to be based on an Orange County Choppers 10th Anniversary or an older Harley Davidson Dyna Street Bob. This motorbike is mostly used by the Angels Of Death and can be considered as the counterpart of the Lycan.
Like other similar bikes, there was a Beta version of it in Grand Theft Auto IV, having the "Nightblade" badge on the transmission cover, as well as a different handlebar joint with a speedometer dial mounted on it.
Grand Theft Auto Online
Template:Next-GenThe Nightblade returns in Grand Theft Auto Online, completely redesigned with inspiration from the Harley Davidson Night Rod Special.
Notable changes are a small frame under the extended fuel tank, an air filter in front of the engine bay and the addition of tubular frames on the lower area. The seat only covers part of the rear section and rear-view mirrors were added to the handlebars. The Nightblade also sports new lights. The Nightbladeās overall design and available mods are notably sportier than typical cruiser motorcycles, some of which are completely unique to this bike.
The Nightblade uses a dial cluster based on those used by the Schafter or the Tailgater, but rearranged in a way that the speedometer is on the center, the temperature gauge on the left and the fuel gauge on the right. The tachometer from the dial set, however, is omitted.

Performance
The Lost and Damned
As a chopper-style bike, the Nightblade feels heavy in both acceleration and handling. However, it still can reach high speeds, much like other similar choppers in the game and braking is acceptable.
The Nightblade barely perform wheelies due to its weight and may cause excessive wheelspins on dirt road, making it unsuitable for off-road getaways.

Grand Theft Auto Online
The Nightblade performs well for its type. It has a relatively high top speed and good acceleration. Its handling is also nippy compared to other choppers. Its heavy weight does not significantly restrict its ability to maneuver, although it does stop the player form being able to perform wheelies. Its durability is weak against harsh collisions and landings after a jump as it can only take a couple of punishments before the bike starts billowing smoke and eventually catch fire and explode.
The bike is powered by a push-rod V-Twin engine, producing a distinctively low-revving, loud engine sound.
