    Has anyone done a foot brake mod?

    After riding a motorcycle for some years, I still find my right foot wanting to control the rear brakes. Even though the brake lever is where a clutch should be, my left foot still tries for gears every now and then too. So how hard would a right foot rear brake mod be? I have yet to find a kit.
