relocating rear brake

Anybody got any ideas on relocating rear brake, master cylinder and pedal, on a 77 KZ 1000a? I am installing a Vance and Hines drag pipe in hopes of having a fun little bracket 1/8th mile bike.

Do what I'm doing get some rearsets and make stuff until it all works together.

The Tarrozzi rearsets I'm using should give you plenty of room.

Lots of guys keep brakes where they are but modify the pedal. I have seen countless different variations of pedals, so best thing to do is to try to find pictures of dragbikes and look how they rebent pedal. AND....streetfighter's set-up is just one of those variations. I've seen pedals bent to go over the top and some that go under the collector, so it's just a matter of style I guess.
