I think I would prefer independent rear. A lot easier to ride. Garys is real fun to ride and it makes your arms muscley. Its likes a good fight.

Think mine may be the only one built so far using IRS, but I've seen photo's of a 600 monster trike using live rear axle. Will see if I can trawl up some pictures in due course.

These guys have the solid axle approach well sussed
