GL1200 aspencade trike project using a IRS rear end

[mouse]

HI im triking my wing its a 1987 bike im going to be building my own IRS (inedpendant Rear Suspensin ) unit .
I will be using a UK Ford sierra rear diff and driveshafts
Diff is a 3.91 ratio

Lobro Half shafts will need to be cut to size later in the build

This is the hub

Looks like a great start Mouse! I'll be watching to see how you get this done.

I started by making a cage to hold the diff bearing in mind that it had to fit into the dimesions of the bike frame plus i had to make sure i could remove the diff at any time

i have made the wishbones at this stage but made them too long :shock:

Do they charge you more taxes for more wheels?

Do they charge you more taxes for more wheels?

over here in the UK they charge tax on the rate of the engine size of the original bike
