Bob , I ended up using a Harley Sportster 5/8" dia. Rear master cylinder for the top caliper hand brake . I had to fabricate a special bracket for the master cylinder and arm to except the cable pull mechanism on my setup . It works great ........................................................................................................................................................Jack, would u pls post a pic of ur sportster master cyl & lever setup for ur rear handbrake?

Jack, I agree totally. You couldn't have done a nicer , or cleaner set up ! I moved the rear brake on my two wheeler up on the bars ,and the more I got use to it the more I liked the benefits. But I regretted that I couldn't make the wheel lock up . I can see you have it covered. Nice job !
