The intent wasn't necessarily to suggest buying from them -- I meant to
learn from their methods.  In this case, the use of an automotive
differential on a trike.

You could do what they do -- take a normal diff housing, cut it down and
rebuild it (like narrowing for a dragster, actually) and position the
pinion to connect to the stock motorcycle driveshaft.

Of course, if you're basing on a transmission that drives the rear wheel
via a chain or a belt, then you'll have to get more creative.  :-)
