Easy, just set it up like a Z50 K1 or K0. Just get a rear brake cable and lever and you should be able to use the current setup just get rid of the brake pedal and brake pedal linkage.

Re: Rear hand brake

Fast50's have the set-up. You keep the footpedal and add a rear hand lever. Comes with all the stuff. Lever,cable,swingarm bracket, etc. Works real well.

why would you sacrifice your brake pedal when you can easily have both? seems like reverse engineering to me

Re: Rear hand brake

I made this one on the cheap...A bark buster bracket from Parts Unlimited and a rear brake cable from an old Honda SA50 scooter and a cheap clutch perch...Total investment...about $30,,,and it works most excellent.

The only reason I suggested that was because he WANTED A LEVER INSTEAD OF A BRAKE PEDAL. Dummy.
