Speeder bike

Speeder bikes, also known as jumpspeeders, were open-air repulsorlift vehicles that emphasized speed and maneuverability over stability. A particularly powerful speeder bike was called a swoop.

The Jedi used the Undicur-class jumpspeeder, which proved popular with civilians. Another civilian speeder bike was the Joben T-85 speeder bike, used by the Jedi Kanan Jarrus.

The Clone Wars saw the development of the CK-6 swoop bikes for use in cold climates, as well as combat speeders designed for the Separatist warlord General Grievous. Hondo Ohnaka's gang rode Starhawk speeder bikes.

The Imperial speeder bike lineage could be traced to the BARC speeders used during the Clone Wars. Imperial forces used the 614-AvA speeder bike until it was phased out by the 74-Z.

Speeder bikes were sometimes a target for theft. Merei Spanjaf, a teenage girl living on Lothal, owned a jumpspeeder that could fit into a speeder van. She normally wore a helmet and goggles when riding it.

On At Attin during the New Republic Era, Fern and KB owned a modified two-being hoverbike, while Wim and Neel owned one-being hoverbikes.

Jace Rucklin had two speeder bikes, one orange and one blue when he befriend Kazuda Xiono. Unknown to Xiono, his blue bike was purposely sabotage. The Warbird gang also use the same speeder bike model, during their raid on the Colossus and when they kidnapped Torra Doza. On Varkana, Synara San stole the same speeder model when she chase after Ax Tagrin. Norath Kev and Xiono escape on San's speeder bike.
