If you have that issue, there is actually a logical & technical explanation on most sport bike rider that have this problem. It had to do with the throttle being on the right and the sweep of the clip-on which cause and awkward kink on the throttle hand wrist during hang-off if you normally grip your throttle dead square to the throttle like a hammer; which restricts throttle action and not surprisingly limit the amount upper torso hang-off forcing your bike to lean more due to restriction of hang-off during right hand corners.

Rather than holding your throttle like a hammer, practice relaxing the grip and holding it more like a screw driver, so your throttle action is less of a wrist action, but more of a arm action; which will eliminate the kink at the wrist for better throttle control during hang-off.
