If you could have either a Swoop Bike or an Imperial Speeder Bike, which one would you pick?
Personally, I'd choose a Swoop. It seems a bit more comfortable than the ISB, and from the looks of it, it's also a bit more maneuverable.

Imperial speeder, the swoop is too light and can crash very easily.

Speeder Bike all the way! Cause ...
- It looks better
- Has firing pistols attached
- High speeds
- Good manuverability
- And even a Ewok can fly it!

| Definetly a swoop, you can customize it any way you want plus they're just cooler. |

Although th swoop has moor speed and probably a little bit sturdier, i would go with the Speeder Bike first of all firepower, second of all most of the time ou won't use all of the swoops speed in battle.
If you can modify them well then swoop add a heavy blaster cannon possibly a windsheild and some fuzzy dice. But of course you could do the same to a Speeder Bike. |

| jedi_master, Maul's bike was a Sith Speeder. The Swoop can be seen in A New Hope-Special Edition (Mos Eisley scenes) and in the Shadows of the Empire comics and games. |

I'll take the swoop. It's gotta be a blast travelling 600 klicks per hour.

Swoop. They look a lot cooler, especially the S-models, they're faster, and they're more dangerous, which has a kind of appeal to it. You have to be a better flyer to pilot a swoop.

All you people are saying that Swoops don't have any weapons but you can customize them so much that you could make it into a mobile platform of death I would take an S-Swoop 'cause it's so much cooler than the imp bike. _________________ Jodo was yellow, Boba is red, they both fought each other, now Jodo is dead. |

i would take a swoop, but they are harder to drive and take more practise but they are much faster and much more maneuverable, plus the look mighty damn cool.  |

Swoops are faster 600 kph as to a speeder bike 500 kph and swoops are cooler looking and the owner can constantly modify it. _________________ Jodo was yellow, Boba is red, they both fought each other, now Jodo is dead. |

Mods:
Put some trim on it, chrome it up some, put a racing stripe on it, and then get old english tyle text of your name so when people see your sweet speeder they'll know who owns it.
The alternative would be off-road, but I guess you can't really put a lift kit on it....so you'd have to go with a NASCAR sticker and just get it muddy or something. _________________

Don't forget the ground effects, the 20's and the neons....not to mention the sound system.

I'd prefer the Aratech Z-4 Military Speeder Bike. It may not be quite as fast as a swoop (about 150 kph short), but not only is it armed, but it's much more maneuverable and easier to control. _________________
