Reversing brake setup?

Hey all.

I hadn't ridden in...oh, ten years, till I moved to NYC last month. In the interim, I've turned into quite a (gasp) motorcyclist, and I'm having all sorts of issues on my bike confusing the levers (in case you don't know, on an MC the right lever is the front brake, a foot pedal is the rear). I still ride my MC as much if not more than my MTB and it's gotten to the point where I'm routinely grabbing the rear brake and instinctively tipping my right toe forward to stab at the phantom rear pedal.

So...would there be any real issue with just swapping the cables so my MTB has an "inverted" setup, with the right lever on the front brake?
