Legend

this was one of Incom Industries' earliest attempts at developing a speeder bike, first produced during the height of the Old Republic. Because it was also one of the first speeder bikes ever developed, its design and form were considered very different from the more modern speeder bikes. The MVR-3 was a bulky vehicle, with a large tail section housing the repulsorlift and thrust engines, along with the vehicle's electronics and a storage bin. The semi-circular seat was located just behind a curved housing that held the controls, allowing the driver to sit in the curve with their feet in the stirrups. While modern speeder bikes made the MVR-3 seem comparatively slow, the MVR-3 was nevertheless extremely maneuverable and had larger than average cargo capacity.
