Instead of retrofitting a full speeder armor on top of a motorcycle, this fan simply assembled the bodywork so that it hides his legs on the Onewheel in order to keep his balance when riding the board. Footage of the fan-made speeder in action was shared by KevlarYarmulke on Reddit. While there are many different iterations of speeder bikes in Star Wars lore, with the latest of these being the Balutar-class swoop from The Mandalorian, this one is completely inspired by the original 74-Z speeder used by the Galactic Empire in Return of the Jedi. Yet in an effort that proves there’s no stopping human ingenuity, someone came up with a different - albeit just as expensive - design that uses a Onewheel skateboard to make this speedster go fully electric.

Speeder bikes first showed up in the Star Warsgalaxy back in 1983, when Return of the Jedi took Luke and Leia to the Forest Moon of Endor for a high-speed chase that probably cemented in many the desire to own one of these at some point of their lives.
However, this clever fan takes things to the next level to create a speeder that’s bound to get some stares in his neighborhood.
Lightsabers aside, Star Wars' legacy has left behind many iconic ships and vehicles that both companies and people love to recreate to show their love for the franchise.
