can you take off the foot peg and lever and flip the lever up-side down? it may have a bit of adjustment that way?

or can the adjuster that connects the lever to the master cylinder be lengthened/ adjusted anymore?

Mine is already on full adjustment, next step is to find a way of making the rod on the master longer.

Your gear lever side you can cut the change rod down, I cut about 10mm off both ends of mine. As for the brake side seeing yours has given me an idea.
We need to make another u shaped connector that is longer to allow the lever to lift up.

+1 on cutting the rod for the gear lever side. Use a coupler and a threaded rod to extend the bottom of the master cylinder. Should only cost a quid or 2.
