Just as it says on the tin. It’d make sense, at least to some extent. If nothing else it might reduce the penalty for vehicle weight.  
I wish to go even faster than I currently do on Bikemon.

Yes, you get about 50 W of kinetic power per point of ST, though that translates into increased speed depends on vehicle configuration in a way that it is really hard to explain.
