Linked Brakes on 2022 V85TT

Good Evening: I have a 2022 V85TT. It has about 4500 miles and enjoying it.
I can not use the rear brake with my foot. I have an artificial right leg below the knee. I removed the brake pedal and locked the brake lever with a steel zip lock. This prevents me from resting my foot on the lever, w/o my realizing it, until a light comes on warning me. My question is very simple "I hope". Many of the new bikes have the front and rear brakes interlocked so that when you squeeze the front brake lever, you will activate both the the front and rear brakes. Does my bike have this feature??? I tried looking several places earlier but could not find a yes or no answer.
Thanks in advance Russ in OKC
 
Russ, with ABS, no. There is two separate circuits on the ABS pump, set up for each wheel and caliper (one, not two).
I would recommend a thumb brake as shown below - know they are ~$400. It would go on the clutch side handlebar, and also require one new hydraulic line as well, which we can be of help with.
Email us directly on the GTM STORE linked above.

Thanks but I don't want to get too far into it. Now that I know the setup, I can adjust my riding accordingly.
