The rumours that the speeder bike in The Drunken Jedi Master is to be equipped with a prototype of an acual hover engine is yet to be confirmed. If this were to be true, the University of Science and Technology (NTNU) must have kept the whole research a secret from the public for years.
One important question is whether the hoverbike, due to Norway´s strict traffic rules, has to have a registrationplate attatched. That would surely look pretty stupid on the film, no matter how awsome a real hover bike would be.
