^ I don't think speederbikes would make for a logical addition to the Battle of Hoth.  Their use makes sense in ROTJ because, given the density of the forest, they are the only real means of transportation (aside from the AT-STs).  On Hoth, however, any Imperial trooper riding a bike would be an easy target for the rebels.  The idea for the Empire here isn't speed, it's defensibility while making a frontal assault (which is where the AT-ATs, with their impenetrable armour, comes in).
