A brake for motorcycles includes an improved brake lever assembly having a brake pad arm configured for attachment at one end to a brake pad, and connected at an opposing end to a brake actuator arm by a rotatable collar. The brake pad arm and the brake actuator arm are disposed relative to one another such that the angle of the brake pad arm is lower than the prior art, thereby enabling actuation of the brake with less foot movement and causing less fatigue in frequent braking situations. While the prior art typically has an angle of 30-35 degrees between the brake pad arm and the brake actuator arm, the present invention maintains a preferred offset angle of 50 to 65 degrees between the brake pad arm and the brake actuator arm.
