Silver Speeder was a racing speeder owned by the bounty hunter Boba Fett in the early years of the Galactic Empire. The speeder was well equipped to enable Fett to attack his targets with an armament that included cutting lasers, magnetic harpoons and a chainsaw shredder.

Fett acquired the Speeder after chasing down a mark on Rivvidu. Since it cost Fett quite some difficulties to capture the vehicle, he decided to keep it.
Fett, acting on a contract from Sise Fromm to kill the young speeder racers Thall Joben and Jord Dusat, followed Joben's speeder, White Witch, into the Boonta Speeder Race. Fett attacked Joben throughout the race, unaware that Sise's son, Tig Fromm had planted a thermal detonator on White Witch. An attack involving magnets accidentally loosened the detonator which attached itself to Silver Speeder. Although Fett ejected in time, Silver Speeder was destroyed.
