I will try to walk you through building a workable two wheel rear end, for a motorcycle. The best way is, to BUY one already made for your motorcycle, but sometimes the cost is out of range for your project. Another important factor is safety and performance of your motorcycle. You as a rider, will be hard to replace, but motorcycles are everywhere, so you want to build a safe ride.
Type 1 Two wheel rear end for a shaft drive.

Type 2 Two wheel rear end for a chain drive.

Type 3

Can be ordered with belt or chain.

My choice on rear suspension
is the independant, like the IRS,
But a little more adjustable and
weight saving but tuff.
Remember this is only my
choice of suspension.
There is a lot more
engineering in this than meets the eye.
If you are not going to build it right
don't do it, as this is a big safety item.

You find that this will give you a smooth ride,
and good handling.
Below are some drawings to explain the general lay out.


I hope this answers one of your questions.

My choice for a easy performance
and easy maintenance is with
the Weber Carb set-up.
For your duel Port VW,
one on each side (a pair ofWebers).
What goes in the motor comes out,
and you want to put the best
air / fuel mixture you can
and you want to get
the best out of your VW motor
you can.

The " 48" duel weber is what I use on my trike. I get good responce
and good fuel mileage. Put your money where your motor is. It will
make a differnce in any VW duel port no matter what the cc's are.

There are questions about Rake: Below is what a correct rake should look like.

JUST JOHN
This motor is different,
there is very little vibs comming off of it
and it already has been used in
a HD in South Dakota special build.

Bolt this to your VW Trike-( Could happen)




You can get a seven or nine banger
Already used on a motor cycle
ofcourse seven or nine exhaust pipes.
