Speeder bikes, also known as hover bikes, are open-air repulsorlift vehicles, usually carrying one or two passengers. Speeder bikes emphasize speed and maneuverability over conventional speeders and are popular with thrill-seeking teenagers and military scouts. A typical speeder bike has a maximum altitude of 10 meters (32 feet) and can thus maneuver deftly over very rough terrain. Some companies manufacture extras like sidecars for speeder bikes.
The 74-Z speeder bike, sometimes referred to as the Imperial speeder bike due to its use by scout stormtroopers of the Galactic Empire, was a speeder bike manufactured by Aratech Repulsor Company used for reconnaissance purposes, as well as rapid transportation in combat zones.

Ride with me.
Constructed by Studio Creations, These two wearable Star Wars Speeder Bike outfits are in the vein of man-riding-horse style costumes. The bodies of the bikes are vacuumformed .125 guage (1/8 inch) styrene, with a 1/2 inch metal-tube subframe holding it together. The "riders" wore weightlifting belts under thier clothes to fasten the 47 pound costumes.
