The leverage ratio of the rear brake pedal of the Yamaha Tenere 700 (XTZ690) motorcycle is changed to allow the rear brake to be activated properly with substantially less pedal travel. This leads to firmer pedal feel, faster braking and less ankle deflection to properly apply the brake. The pivot point of the brake pedal is fixed on the bike's frame so it cannot be moved so the short side of a new pedal has been lengthened rearward creating more upward motion to the master cylinder with less movement of the long side of the lever. The master cylinder's pushrod is then out of alignment with the master cylinder due to the lengthened brake pedal. A newly designed offset clevis is added to realign the pushrod with the master cylinder.
