There are kits on the market to do that. You have to search monkey-bike and pit-bike tuning shops, or just google something like "manual clutch conversion".
Here's one example. This is from a monkey shop in the UK and it includes everything you'll need, even the hand lever and cable, although it's not shown in the pic. The price quoted is £95.

If you go with genuine Honda parts the cost becomes much higher, for example just a genuine Honda clutch cover is £95:

You can also get prestigious brand items, like Takegawa kits, but these are prohibitely expensive.

This is an exploded view of all the bits, so it's quite involved:



It may be easier to just buy a complete hand clutch engine from somewhere like ebay. Try an ebay search for "Lifan engine". Lots come up with reasonable prices and in the US.

http://www.xtpowersports.com/Clutch.1.1.131.1576.html is a link to a complete kit for $190.

The suggestion of swapping a manual engine would make alot fo sense unless you really want to mod the one you have.

If you want more power then you might as well go ahead a buy a 125cc manual shift and bolt it in.

You may be able to find used parts on ebay too.

Here's the easiest way. Type this number into the search field on eBay: 350083588498

Cheers!

That is a great deal on a 125. Definately to best option. Swap that in and sell the the 110 auto.
