Relocate the Rear Brake Lever

[Hakka Lugi]

I saw the rear brake lever bend on that TAT video when the guy dumped his bike in sand. I think he said his buddy also bent his rear brake lever and it is a suspected design flaw.
I want to bring the rear brake cable and housing up to the right hand brake lever. I want to add a brake lever to the left handlebar dead space and make that the front brake. I primarily ride bicycles and am used to this braking configuration.
What do you think? Is this doable?

Is this doable?

Anything is doable for a sufficiently talented engineer.

Dual Hydraulic Brake Levers

The topic has been discussed on other posts but I thought someone might be interested in seeing it actually done. I lost my right leg in the Vietnam war. For me to operate the rear brake I have to take my foot off the peg and actuate the pedal using the heel of my prosthetic foot. Awkward but...

get a custom brake hose made and a 10mm clutch master. will be fine. measure eye to eye for the banjo fittings (10mm banjos)

I'll be following this as I'll like to have a left-hand rear brake (LHRB as it called in the dirt bike circle) also.
(Do not want a RIGHT HRB. Even my bicycles are set up like the rest of the world, front right, left rear.)
Ways I have considered doing this;
1) A manual clutch lever from a Honda CRF300 or some other Honda that looks like it matches the stock CT brake lever nicely. Run a properly sized clutch cable to the stock CT rear master cylinder and fab some sort of brackets and mounts to make it all work. This could be done and also retain the rear break pedal.
2) A hydraulic clutch master cylinder and lever from some Honda that looks like it matches nicely. Custom hose to the rear brake cylinder. Simple, easy, peasy, no rear brake pedal.
3) LHRB kit from Rekluse or Clarke SLR. May or may not be plug and play depending on component compatibility. Retains brake pedal or not, Rekluse uses the little bicycle master cylinder and lever, Clarke SLR uses a normal size one but it won't match the stock CT lever.
I'm leaning towards #1. I want it to look factory stock, even the hose and fittings.
