Continuing On....
I decided to go with a foot clutch and hand shift. This fab project is next after the fenders, but here is the concept....
The tank is a stretch flatside softail tank with a total (L and R Side) capacity of about 6 gallons
I am adding a smooth side shifter gate from a 36 Knucklehead and a standard repro hand shifter

On the right hand side, I am adding a modified shifter gate used on Big Twins sent to the UK (They had the hand shifter on the right... they had opposite side controls just like UK cars)

Why?
It is connected to a small Wilwood E-Brake caliper and serves as my parking brake

Here are the two gates
