Why would it take damage? Disabled makes a unit spend 2 actions instead of one to make a standard move. The compulsory move does not require any actions and just happens, even if you have a Disabled token. Basically Disabled will only take effect if you want to make another move after the compulsory.

Disabled is honestly a pretty good result to get on a speeder since the Compulsory move goes a long way to mitigating the drawback of disabled.

Yup. Especially when you realize pivots are not Standard Moves!
