D'oh!
I waited for a bit to post, because I was hoping that the other two bikes
would be out of moderation. But couldn't wait any longer. Just my luck to
post and the others pop right out.
Oh well...
Vance and his HoverChopper:
Vance's custom bike incorporates a specialized fleebnork "blast" exhaust. It
propels his bike to max power in about .05 of a second and leaves a distinct
"burnt cherry" odor that's may-or-may-not be carcinogenic. Lab tests need to
be conducted - until then, just hold your breath. The bike's large front end
and extra kick-power requires a customized control system that's hair
triggered and, apparently, tuned to Vance's ego.

Timmy and Lil' Lightnin'
Last we have Timmy and his home-brewed Lil' Lightnin'. Timmy grew up
listening to stories of the Turbocycle Racing League and was always hopeful
of being a competitor. When Hoverbikes started coming around he threw
together all his spare change to build a bike of his own from junkyard
parts. Sure the power source was illegally rigged, the steering column was a
little loose and the injectors would constantly stick open, but Timmy was
determined to be a man.
Sadly, at his very first race, the fleebnork backfire from Vance's
HoverChopper frightened Timmy so much he opened the throttle on Lil'
Lightnin' and the injectors stuck in the max-open position. This propelled
Lil' Lightin' (and Timmy) on a wild, uncontrolled ride up an on-ramp, over
the freeway, and directly into a Jar-Jar convention.
There were no survivors.
