I am converting a Corbin sparrow to gas drive with a honda 600cc scooter. I plan to widen the front suspension and would love to make it into a tilting...
The Sparrow is a great little vehicle and well suited to its purpose. If you are going to do that much work, why not start from scratch and build what you...
