In line twins

Just a quick question fellas on in-line twins like in Richy McCullochs mini bike how would have the clutches been chained together and the drive chain incorporated ............ would the rear engine cltch drum have had a double row drive tooth sproket ?

Yes, rear clutch has double sprockets. One short chain links the two clutches together, the second clutch with a second sprocket has a chain to rear wheel's sprocket.
