Everything is custom. You can convert a hydrolic clutch lever for the left side but you will need to get a Rekluse clutch conversion or run 2 levers on the left side.
Other option is to get a thumb brake or add a line to the front brake with dual banjo bolts.
You can do the dual banjos but you will lock both front and rear at the same time.

Hey Mr. D
I used a front brake master cylinder off a KX250 and mounted the lever just below the clutch,it fits nicely but you just need to bleed it up before you mount it as the reservoir will be on its side.
You can then use the brake and clutch independently or together by pulling the clutch and reaching over to grab the brake, with a little practice it gives you a lot of control and you don't even need to think about it.
Check out my YZ125 project, it has a similar setup and pics.
Good luck!
