The Orange Project brakes

With the new rearsets I had to re-do the rear brake rod to make some room for the new exhaust. Then there was the problem of fitting a second spring for the drum brake and the brake light switch in a "discrete" position
So, I came up with this little contraption




The idea was to connect a double rod at the brake lever, one that pulls the drum brake and the other that pushes (and then pulls) to operate the second spring and the switch



Everything hidden behind the footpeg support and works pretty well.

I've Also modified an old HD lever to work with an idraulic master cylinder at the front and match the clutch's one.
