The casting of my lever broke on my Ventus. Anyone know of a local source for lever replacement?

Picture?

Is there a defect in design?

Maybe have a new one fabricated at a machine shop.

It's originally a motorcycle (dirt bike) front brake lever. These guys break them all the time so replacements are available from any 'bike shop.
