rear brake info

[r100/7]

hi been looking on hear about info on fixing a flat plate on to the top of the rear brake lever to lengthen it so that ur boot does not his the carb.

becouse my boot his hits the carb and i can put the rear brake on much and would like to lengthen the lever so it is out past the carb so that i can put the rear brake on good.
all info would be great

Use lowered footpegs

More leverage and easier on the knees
