Space Marine Bikes are incredibly deadly and robust bikes used by the Space Marine Bike Squads for lightning-quick raids and reconnaissance.[1]
Overview
These vehicles are equipped with powerful engines, required to propel a fully-armoured Space Marine at high speeds, and boast highly-responsive controls required to perform complex battlefield maneuvers.[1] They are able to operated in a wide range of environments, from shifting dune seas to ice-strewn wastelands to rocky moonscapes, and are simple enough in design that their riders can perform repairs in the field if necessary.[2] Their sturdy construction and wide, thick tires allows the bike to easily smash through rockcrete walls at full speed without harm to either bike or rider.[1]
The typical armament of a Space Marine Bike is a set of twin Bolters mounted on either side of the bike's headlight.[1]
Space Marine Attack Bike
A variant of the Bike is the Space Marine Attack Bike, which includes a Heavy Bolter or Multi-Melta mounted on an attached sidecar.[1]
