clip ons and a hand brake I keep problems!

i just threw clip ons vortex adjustables on my gix k3 it locks form lock to lock and my hand gets jammed on the frame/ intake hole ouch

its fightered 9 iwas thinking of putting the plastics back on

if I leave the bars out like a mountain bicycle they are uncomfortable and they even moved when I was practicing. I had them all the way out(length wise extended all the way out so i can run a handbrake I dont use it now but want too soon) and it didnt touch but there is no way to run them on a angle like stock and not have the bars lock out diminishing turning radius

ther is no way to run all my switches and handbrake etc.

how does everyone else do it ? should I slide the clip ons upward nearer to the tripple clamp . Now they are about 3.5 inches of space between the top tripple and clip -on clamps.

help please

Clip-ons shouldn't be so low. Should be in stock(or close to) position.
