#Three-wheeledMotorcycle

You probably know the name Corbin as “those seat guys.” Fair enough, considering the company is one of the leading manufacturers of aftermarket seats and accessories for all kinds of motorcycles. However, transport yourself back to 1997 and we arrive at the topic for this week’s Church entry: the Corbin Sparrow. With visions of the next form of personal transportation anyone could afford, history tells us Corbin missed the mark. That doesn’t mean the Sparrow isn’t unique, and 17 years ago Contributing Writer D.C. Wilson profiled the three-wheeler. Check out the genesis of the Sparrow and how it performs in Wilson’s piece below. 

A trike in many cases is a two-wheeled machine that has been modified with a kit that coverts the machine to a three wheeler. In these cases the insurance will typically list the parts under accessories coverage. Much the same as you would list upgraded handlebars or a new exhaust. The trike conversion kit may have a price of $10,000 or more, not to mention labor to complete the conversion. Another example of a three-wheeled machine are the newer Harley Davidson Trikes. These are factory-built trikes and will not need to have the policy reflect additional parts as it is not a conversion.
