Speeders
Saga Edition Core Rulebook, page 176.
Ground-based repulsor vehicles, collectively known as landspeeders, are common on planets throughout the galaxy. They are used widely by military forces, civilian authorities, businesses, and private citizens. Most families own at least one landspeeder, particularly on planets with scant urbanization and little public transportation. Landspeeders are propelled by repulsorlifts, although some racing and military models use ion engines for greater top-end speed.
Knights of the Old Republic, page 93.
Repulsorlift vehicles of the days of the Old Republic follow simple and thoroughly tested design standards. Many varieties of speeders exist throughout the Republic, and urban worlds such as Taris and Coruscant are home to literally thousands of different speeder makes and models. The speeders presented in this section represent a basic cross-section of the repulsorlift vehicles available during this time.
Speeder Bikes
Saga Edition Core Rulebook, page 176.
These small, fast personal transports appeal to teenagers looking for thrills, military forces that require effective scout vehicles, and law enforcers needing swift pursuit craft. Speeder bike races are popular in the Core systems, where they are viewed as more refined than the extremely dangerous Podraces. Still, speeder bikes emphasize speed and maneuverability over safety and protection.
Knights of the Old Republic, page 92.
Speeder bikes spike in popularity following the Great Sith War as Lhosan Industries introduces two new models&Mdash;a swoop bike for racing, and a more common street speeder bike for simple transport. Both of these designs spark a revolution in speeder bike design. Only the Aratech Urban Navigator speeder bike comes close to the Lhosan bikes’ popularity. The speeder bikes are based on military speeders used by the Republic just prior to the Great Sith War.
Walkers
Most walkers are used as armored assault vehicles. Their sheer size and strength enable them to carry more armor and weapons than a similarly sized repulsorlift vehicle, and they can step over smaller obstacles.
