Description: Although speeder bikes are very popular on the frontier worlds, their low altitude range makes them impractical for densely populated worlds like Coruscant or Kuat, where buildings can not only be accessed at the ground level but at landing ports many hundreds of meters from the ground. Repulsor lift vehicles such as aircabs provide transport for the majority of people, but for the young, and the young at heart Corusmotors introduced the Hi Flyer, a speeder bike type vehicle with the altitude range to join the aerial traffic lanes. Not as fast as a true speeder bike and far more expensive, the Hi Flyer unfortunately went out of production with the destruction of Coruscant.
