Just bought a rebuilt bike and would like a step by step guide on how to delink,my previous lemans already had it done
This bike has done 8,000km since rebuild but I hate the brakes, want front lever to actuate both front disks and foot pedal to work rear
 
For my own benefit I would like to understand what you don't like about the braking. Just curious

I find the braking on my Mark IV to be terrific but this is compared with more ancient bikes I have for which I need to consider that I have virtually no brakes so my standards are low.

You can probably relate with your collection of Velocette!

Not sure if there is one, but our Archive has some mentions; https://archive.guzzitech.com/
You simply just need a new front master cylinder in 15 or 16mm size, and new brake lines. I can be of help with both if you want, you can email me; Todd at GuzziTech.com

My experience on road and track including rider training was to only ever use the rear brake as a hill holder!
My previous 1000 had the conversion done and I was very happy with it
Guess it's what you get used to
My rear disk/ drum usually goes rusty!
