Abstract
In the modern day life, sophistication is expected from people side in every fields especially in the automobiles with the main focus on speed, comfort, cost, easy operability. In the automotive sector, the concept of four–wheel drive in cars are becoming popular and the demand is growing day-by-day, but the improvement in the two wheelers is minimal. The concept of dual or two wheel drive mechanism in the motorbike wasn’t much focused and also economically implemented, either back wheel or front wheel drive concept is used in the motorbike. Dual wheel driven idea is suitable in the situations like irregularfield, highlysloped roadsetc., andappropriate for off-road application like agricultural area, military field, desert drive. This paper, proposed a design with the intentions of easy vehicle operation with low productioncost which can be expected to be attained with the usage of sprockets and chain drive for minimum powertransmission losses. Usually, back wheel drivesquicker compare to front wheel drive and there will not be a transmission of power to the front drivewhile in the turning condition and it will be charged if the rear wheel loses traction while driving in uneven area with high speed.
