drz handbrake question

i'm using a full throttle rear master which actually came off a 929, but we fit it on the drz. i'm also running the 1/2 nissin from full throttle. my problem is that the lever is to stiff, even on the lowest setting and it dosen't really put much pressure on the rear brake, but the foot brake works perfect. i was told i needed to find a master that would match the size of the caliper on the drz since they are smaller than street bikes. any suggestions on what master will give me a softer feel?

would a dirt bike master work better instead of a street bike one?

also anyone know who makes dual caliper brackets for a drz, only found brackets for wr250x.

talked to bill at full throttle. he suggested a 11 or 12mm master for a better feel.
