Dahon gear shift is in no way connected to the brake levers, you can pull it off independently. I suppose if you wanted to , you could put the gear shift on the other side; it'd just be upside down. Wouldn't be too hard to adjust. Of course you'd need to cut down your left hand grip to fit the shifter.

Another option is to buy and install a Spacebar extra bar that mounts below your handlebar. Put your shifter or your throttle on that.
