Sorry, camera battery died, You´ll need a gas welder to warm the lever and bend it outwards about an inch from the nipple hole or cut it and bend it and weld it back up. weld up the pivot hole and redrill it about 1/4 of the distance between them. Grind the lever back to where the original hole was to clear the bit on the handlebars. Then you´ll see that the cable slot has to be cut down further and the adjuster is at the wrong angle and it´s a lot of work for nowt but father never did work out the big picture before he started a job.
SO to look even more silly weld the lever 4 inches longer and move it nearer the middle of the handle bar.
Longer lever gives more leverage and I never did worry about looks if something functioned better.
How about a foot clutch like the WD harley or even like a car! OR try to sell the bloody lot like I´m doing and lay in the sun. Mobility scooters, it´s the future.
