There are a plethora of bikes to choose from in GTA Online. But there are currently only 4 dirt bikes to choose from in GTA Online. These are the 3 that are recommended. The BF400, not included in this list, might be the fastest on certain pavement based tracks but it is a death machine, killing the player nearly 100% of the time after any jump or stunt is performed. Since dirt bikes are primarily used off-road, which inevitably includes a lot of jumps, it does not make the top 3 list.
3. Dinka Enduro

"Cross country bike that can literally go across the country. Over-sized gas tank, increased durability, long-travel suspension, blood guards. You'll want one of these in your garage when society inevitably collapses- Southern San Andreas Super Autos.
The Dinka Enduro is a fairly quick and well-performing bike, but lacks in capabilities off-road. An odd and unfortunate fact about the Dinka Enduro is that it isn't available for use in off-road races. For long-distance drives in the desert or through rolling hills in other situations, the Dinka Enduro is great.
The Dinka is marketed by Southern San Andreas as the perfect bike for long distances. The stats for this bike do not reveal this, but the way that the bike performs does actually reveal this. The physics of this bike discourages you from performing anything too crazy and forces you to stay on relatively medium intensity terrain so that you won't fall off.
If one looks deeper at the Dinka Enduro, you might think that the bike's inability to perform stunts and conquer extreme terrains might just be causing a psychological byproduct that forces you to seek calmer and safer grounds. That factor combined with the gearbox configuration will end up fulfilling the bike's original stated purpose of driving long distances. The bike absorbs a lot of bumps and forces you to stay on more stable terrain as it has some difficulty performing some things that the Manchez and the Sanchez can easily do.
Overall, the Dinka Enduro will perform better off-road than road bikes and even do better than the Manchez in certain situations.
Released with: Heists update. Price: $48,000 Dealer: Southern San Andreas Super Autos Speed: 6.4/10 Acceleration: 7.3/10 Braking: 3.8/10 Handling: 6.6/10
Why the Dinka Enduro is great:
Best for long-distance driving.
A durable reliable bike for everyday use.
Very capable when performing off-road more serious tasks like missions or SecuroServ work.

2. Maibatsu Manchez

"The act of launching yourself off a fat dirt jump, achieving a torrential climax using nothing more than your powerfully throbbing saddle and then landing upside down in a heap of shattered bones, engine parts, and bodily fluids. Part fetish, part deathwish, part bloodsport." - Southern San Andreas Super Autos.
The Maibatsu Manchez is very similar to the Sanchez, but just a little different. It has a very similar engine as the Sanchez, but uses 5 gears and is slightly lighter. This might be a contributing factor to the Manchez being a little lacking in performing stunts. The Manchez is actually the ultimate wheelie machine and is able to perform very long wheelies for long distances. When it comes to choosing between the Manchez and the Sanchez for an off-road race, one might think that the Manchez will always win out, due to its stats. This is not always true. It is more of a toss-up and best left up to the styles of the user and the terrain itself that will ultimately determine the winner. The Sanchez will perform better on more extreme terrains, but the Manchez will perform better if there are longer straightaways off-road.
Released with: Bikers update. Price: $67,000 Dealer: Southern San Andreas Super Autos Speed: 7.8/10 Acceleration: 7.4/10 Braking: 4.0/10 Handling: 6.5/10
Why the Maibatsu Manchez is great:
Great for off-road races, second to only the Sanchez.
The ultimate bike for wheelies and prolonged wheelies (you'll always win the wheelie free mode challenge).

"Prepare to get even dirtier even faster with the all-new Sanchez. If you want a ride that really leaves a mark on the track, this is the bike for you. - Description on Southern San Andreas Super Autos.
Maibatsu has been churning out great automobiles for the GTA universe since GTA III beginning with the iconic Maibatsu Monstrosity, which is a very large SUV with a very low MPG. Since then, Maibatsu has produced a series of vehicles including helicopters, sedans, box trucks, sports coupes and dirt bikes.
The Maibatsu Sanchez is the ultimate classic that is long-lasting and reigns supreme in the dirt bike world. The Maibatsu Manchez came much later in the game and therefore is not as special and not as cherished as the classic Sanchez. On paper, the Manchez looks better, but the Sanchez actually exceeds the capabilities in many ways. That means it can conquer higher mountains quicker, perform stunts with greater ease, but lacks in wheelies relative to the Manchez.
Overall, the Sanchez is the best option, the most solid dirt bike in the game. It's the only bike that truly acts like and is truly designed like a real dirt bike. The Sanchez looks like it will remain king in the Grand Theft Auto world for a very long time unless the overlords at Rockstar decide otherwise. The Sanchez is a truly iconic piece of machinery we hope will continue to reign supreme in the GTA dirtbike world for years to come.
Released with: Available from the beginning. Price: $8,000(Sanchez 2)/$7,000(Livery) Dealer: Stolen from civilians/ Southern San Andreas Super Autos Speed: 7.7/10 Acceleration: 7/10 Braking: 3.7/10 Handling: 6.5/10
Why the Maibatsu Sanchez is great:
Lowest price (free if you steal it).
Superior maneuverability.
Unmatched stunt and wheelie capabilities.
The only truly genuine dirt bike in GTA.
