No problem man. It does take some getting used to, the leverages are definitely different. With the really far out like you had, the leverages are similar to your original bars, so it felt natural to you. You'll adjust

One thing to watch out for is pinching your thumbs at full-lock. That got me a few times when i first made the switch.

dude -- how hard was the install? was routing the lines a real pain in the @ss? i was just considering going out to the garage and putting my new cycle cat clip-ons on but i'm not sure i have the energy tonight... how long did it take you and how important is it to have the front stand? i only have a rear stand and a jack right now... getting a barley sport chock from monster parts soon (UPS depending), but obviously that will be of no use to this job.

is it possible to remove the top triple and slip the clip-ons under it without the front stand? thanks

I have a Pit Bull front yoke stand which made the job pretty easy.
Took about 2 hours... But I was going pretty slow, never done any front end work before.
Routing cables was pretty easy for me.
You do need some way to lift the front end off the the ground... Straps, maybe a engine stand?

Don't think you could do it with just a rear stand.
