Hi from across the North Sea. I don't have an answer, except to suggest you look for disabled specialists such as NABD - National Association for Bikers with a Disability, here in the UK. They have solutions available for many conditions and there may be similar organisations in Belgium and nearby.

Had a throttle boss on my 2003 Sportster...hated it. Seemed to be more in the way than assisting. Tried numerous adjustments, but nothing seemed to help.
