The Nagasaki Carbon RS is a sport bike appearing in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online, and due to appear in Grand Theft Auto VI.
Description
Grand Theft Auto V and Online
The Carbon RS was originally available exclusively to players who purchased the Collector's Edition of Grand Theft Auto V. It was later made available for purchase from Legendary Motorsport in the enhanced editions of GTA V and Online.
Grand Theft Auto VI
The Carbon RS appears on a major thoroughfare in Vice Beach in the game's first trailer, parked next to a red Double T (0:33). A customized variant of the bike with a white and grey livery also appears earlier in the first trailer. Both versions of the bike showcase upgraded engine model details compared to the Carbon RS from Grand Theft Auto V and Online.
Influence
The Carbon RS' design appears to be inspired by the styling of the Ducati 1199 and the Carbon Edition of the EBR 1190RS, which features carbon fiber bodywork similar to that of the Carbon RS.
Design
The Carbon RS features a sporty bodywork that is prominently made from CFRP (hence the name "Carbon"). The front fender is directly mounted on the silver/chrome fork legs, while the handlebars are mounted independently on the upper clamp. The frontal area of the fairing houses the main lamps, two mirror holders and a curved windscreen. There is a small panel containing the "Sports Bike" dials, which are the same as the ones from the Akuma and the Bati 801.
Because of the CFRP body, the bike lacks any respray option, even though in the game files, it is listed with a white colour. It uses a set of carbon-fibre rims that are similar to the "Speedway" rims seen in Los Santos Customs.
In the enhanced version, the Carbon RS sports front indicator lamps on the mirror holders, in a similar manner to the NRG 900 and the Thrust.
Performance
The Carbon RS is a lightweight bike with a short wheelbase and as expected, it is very nimble; it can easily perform both wheelies and stoppies. However, the bike has only an average top speed, which can be easily beaten by the Bati 801, although its acceleration and maneuverability compensates the top speed, matching the other sports bikes.
The exhaust manifold of the bike defines the engine as a 4-cylinder and has a 5-speed gearbox, with the website claimed to be a 999cc engine pushing 196hp. It shares the same engine sound as the Akuma and the Double T.
