I built a VW trike back during High School (1970) but have been on 2-wheels since.
My question is the rear drive wheel. I see some (motorcycle based) trikes that used converted auto differential (like a Jag) which could be a 'limited-slip' type. I see some kits that look like only one of the two rear wheels gets powered. I'm not asking how many prefer a limited-slip set-up over a single wheel drive set-up... Just how much advantage is there in a trike set-up to have limited slip? Converting a chain-drive motorcycle into a trike where the left rear wheel is the drive wheel would be an easier & lighter drive conversion (DIY... not a kit) plus the right wheel could be available to adapt an electric reverse set-up to (with electric clutch & neutral switch controled power source).
