The seeming "1 speedbar" restriction is because it is "active",
meaning it tries to show you useful things based on the cursor focus.
Since there is one cursor focus, there is one speedbar.

You can lock down a view by choosing "detach" from the speedbar menu
(mouse-3), after which you can create a new speedbar, leaving the
original one lying about.

Unfortunately, it isn't as robust as it could be. :(
