Default Left side handlebar feel awkward?

I'm not sure what it exactly is, but the clutch side grip feels alittle awkward.
Not sure if the lever is alittle to long or set to close to the end. Or if the grip
And bar end is to short. The right side feels fine. Just the left side really feels awkward.

You know... I've struggled with a phenomenon for over 45 years having to do with the left side handlebar.

Virtually EVERY motorcycle I have ever ridden (Including the current TG and '99 Heritage I own) appears to me to have the bars twisted to the left slightly. It's weird. I've gotten used to it over the years so it doesn't really bother me anymore, but it's always a source of irritation!

Screwy, no?

If the problem seems to be with all your handlebars,,,,,,,, Might your hand be mounted twisted to the right more than normal ?????
Just kidding!
