History[]

Trash-the-Speeder-Bike

Ahsoka Tano's speeder bike

During the Clone Wars, former Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano bought a T-85 speeder bike after leaving the Jedi Order, which was later dubbed "Trash" by Trace Martez due to the fact the bike keeps breaking down.[8] When she was recruited by Bo-Katan Kryze, she left her bike with the sisters "just in case."[9]

Kanan Speeder Bike Fathead

Kanan's Joben T-85 speeder bike

The rebel Jedi Kanan Jarrus used a Joben T-85 speeder bike.[7] Kanan and Ezra used Kanan’s speeder bike to get to the Bendu’s dwelling place. Due to being blind, Ezra drove while Kanan sat in the back.[10] Jarrus rode another T-85 bike when he and the other Spectres prepared for the attack on Lothal. Unlike his green one, this one was painted black. When the attack failed, Kanan attempted to use his new T-85 to save Hera Syndulla but the White Loth-wolf stopped him and he ended up finding Mart Mattin.[11] Garazeb Orrelios used his T-85 bike to help launch the Loth-bat gliders.[12]

The Trandoshan bouncer Vrell bought a brand new Joben T-85 speeder[13] in 3 ABY which he proceeded to modify.[14]

Behind the scenes[]

The Joben T-85 speeder bike first appeared in the eleventh episode of the first season of the animated television series Star Wars Rebels. The name of the Joben T-85 speeder bike, its components and manufacturer, identified in the 2014 reference book Star Wars Rebels: The Visual Guide by Adam Bray, are references to Star Wars Legends characters from the 1985 animated television series Star Wars: Droids: The Adventures of R2-D2 and C-3PO. The name Joben itself is of course a reference to Thall Joben, while the manufacturer Zebulon Dak Speeder Corporation is a reference to the Legends company of the same name, and by extension character Zebulon Dak himself. While the components: Dusat aft-firing EMP emitter and Moll K-19 power generator, are similarly named after Jord Dusat and Kea Moll, respectively.
