The way you describe the lever action is exactly how these clutches are supposed to work with your basic kit.
Please tell us more about your set up to see if we can help you.

Thanks Chaz, what you say makes perfect sense and I'm being particularly dim!!!
I haven't actually built the bike yet, I've got most of the parts I need for a dry build but I'm waiting on a set of wheels. I've got quite a few projects on the go at the moment so I'm keeping this quite simple.
I'm just using a Chinese frame with separate fuel tank with an 80cc (66cc) engine, Monark II style forks, Brooks Flyer saddle, Sturmey Archer XL-FS front hub brake with an S1C coaster on the rear, black rims and cream Schwalbe Fat Frank tyres. It'll probably be similar to this Sportsman Flyer but in a board racer style:

Having said that I saw this online the other day and the attention to detail is amazing:
