I'm not sure why the other companies do it....but here's my reason. The upper triple clamp on hondas is engineered in a way that the pinch bolt sticks out a bit over an inch in FRONT, over the forks. That extra distance that my lower clamp sticks out, allows for full adjustment around that pinch bolt.

As stated, you could run a bit shorter bars....and turn them out a bit. Adjustables are crazy......mountng positions are damn near infinite.
