"Recently acquired from MidAmerica Auctions! This Corbin was originally purchased by Malcolm Forbes in 1975, in response to the gas shortage - it was his intent to use this bike to commute in the event that the gasoline supply worsened.


The bike runs on 3 car batteries, and is capable of 40mph, for up to 2 hours.
