The tips of the levers on my '46 SQ4 are about 5-1/2" from the midline of the handlebar. I think this is fairly normal for 6" levers. In your picture you seem to have the brake lever clamped a distance from the twistgrip. You may get a better lever angle if you move it tight up to the twistgrip as in picture below. I don't have too much trouble with this geometry (big hands).

Pete - what happens if you re-arrange that set-up so the throttle cable goes under the brake lever (and the choke lever then passes at the lowest part of the twistgrip) ?
