GP tech is the cheaper way to go and works well,Full throttle inc.is the best setup out there.If your just starting out you probably don't need a hanbreak yet though.Learn your throttle control and engine braking first.

I have been riding motorcross for years but street bikes for only a year or so...I just wanted to get it as it seems easier than the rear brake to use. Thanks for the input!

Paul knows his stuff, I rock out with him often and have to agree with him 100% here. Work on your foundation throttle/brake/clutch control and then step up when you are ready...
