The troopers on speeders tap their com links outside of their ears as they gingerly slow down, draw around, and then take off in pursuit of Eldrith and Zo. One remains behind the other, his plasteel-gauntleted hand on the side of his helmet as he talks with his compatriots. The other zooms forward, gaining ground on Eldrith and Zo.

The speeder bikes the troopers are using are, while fast, they are standard gear. If what he has heard of the legends of smugglers who ply the stars is true, Eldrith is pretty sure he could outrun these bikes in this custom speeder - over open terrain, that is. In a city like this, a bush pilot driver on Tatooine or maybe a Corellian smuggler might be able to use the speeder's full capabilities, but for Eldrith, it would be more than a bit dangerous.
