My Nerfs with built-in pegs are a little higher than stock and when I'm wearing riding boots I have to really press sdown hard to get the rear brake to work. Is there a way to adjust the rear brake lever like you can the shifter ?

You have to take the pin out that attaches the pedal to the master cylinder. You do that by removing the cotter pin and sliding the pin out. Then you break loose the upper nut and turn the u shaped thing so it unscrews some. The more you unscrew the higher the pedal will go.

Some more insight please. Are you referring to the upper nut in the master cylinder ? It looks thin and I'm worries about cutting up the rubber boot. I'll give it a try this weekend, but wanted to know if anyone else had some thoughts. Thanks.
