on dirtbikes and street bikes(that people use for stunt purposes), its done all the time. Mostly you need a really long brake line or some kind of system to merge it with the rear brake pedal. But, they normally leave the front brake alone and put the rear brake on the left side using a master cylinder that mounts under the clutch lever(perch/master cylinder). There is a company that made a dual lever master cylinder for street bikes, 2 separate systems on the same perch. I don't see why you would want to remove the front brake, its does most of your stopping, the rear just skids and slides around at speed.

I use my front master for my rear brake on my 83 300r. Works great for racing.I have no front brake.
