DESCRIPTION
This variant of the 614-AVA jumpspeeder is modified to capitalize on the forward facing firepower the standard 614-AVA already sports. This dramatically reduces the maximum speed of the bike but doubles the blaster cannon firepower. Many mercenaries may have made similar modifications to their vehicles to match these changes.
These upgrades are legally incorporated and Maan Vizsla has the receipts to prove it. Sometimes during a prolonged operation, Maan may instruct his subordinates to make "necessary" adjustments to their assets by de-limiting their turbines. While this is almost never done beforehand at the risk of it coming out of his own pocket, it is easily something that the Trandoshan considers a business expense or something he can pass off as collateral damage. Should he or his like-minded peers choose to make these adjustments the jump speeder's altitude drops to 11 meters but the top speed increases to 575. This is only when faster transport is not readily available but is required.
Versions of these jumpspeeders are used by contractors and mercenaries that work alongside Maan Vizsla. Usually these are carried onboard mobile tac pods so they can be brought planet-side. Maan Vizsla has a personal model he has added to his collection of bikes.
LEGALITY
Restricted. 614-AVAs are combat craft, and are subject to extra licensing requirements and increased scrutiny by authorities. Upgrading a vehicle with blaster cannons is considered unlawful in much of the Galaxy, or is at least subject to permits and special licensing.INTENT
To have a modified bike for my character. He likes bikes and will collect other jumpspeeders and do the same but this model is good for "business". It seems like it might also commonly be used by other mercenaries. Based of off the original 614-AVA.
