DESCRIPTION
The SG-426 is a a high-performance swoop bike produced by Shark Repulsorcraft, a small manufacturer specializing exclusively in jumpspeeder-type vehicles for the enthusiast markt. One of the company's more popular offerings, the SG-426 is a light, compact vehicle, about 2 meters in length and capable of speeds up to 350 kph in stock configuration. It can carry its driver and a single passenger, although it is advised such a passenger be very friendly with the driver. Cargo capacity is about 25 kilograms in a bin behind the seat.SG-426s are popular as racing bikes, their short frame giving them excellent handling around corners. Many swoop racing teams include such vehicles in their stables, and their success on the track has led to decent sales with the coveted post-adolescent demographic.
LEGALITY
Legal. Swoops like the SG-426 are not military vehicles, nor do they have any features which might make them restricted on most worlds. They may get you a speeding ticket, of course.
INTENT
To create a generic swoop bike. Compare SRAD Siroc.
ADVANCED TECH
No. Shark SG-426s are relatively common, and are fairly simple to buy, steal or otherwise acquire.
