The Ikas-Adno Starhawk was a model of civilian speeder bike that, during the Imperial Period, was the best-selling civilian speeder bike[1]. The bike was considered sleek, fast, and relatively inexpensive which could contribute to it being popular among the galaxy's youth[1].

Variants

The 2b variant was out-of-production during the Imperial Period and, despite not being the fastest speeder bike, was highly sought-after by collectors[4].

Being a civilian vehicle, it is not usually armed, but rebel technicians have the ability to mount weapons onto them for use in combat[5] and the Stend VI police forces likewise use armed versions to try to keep up with local gangs[6]. Ikas-Ando also produced a military version called the Sunwolf[7].
