The Biker Advanced Recon Commando (BARC) speeder was a powerful speeder bike model used by the Alliance as a reconnaissance craft during the First War. Younger than the 74-Z speeder bike employed at the Second Battle of Dorin, it was actually more closely designed after the Ripper speeder bike manufactured by Aratech's competitor, Mobquet. It was manufactured by Aratech Repulsor Company. A civilian variant, Police BARC speeder also saw extensive use on city planets.
