I think opposite of twitchy...Although I may be confused by what you wrote
First you said drop the forks then later raise the front so I am thinking you meant slide the forks down into the top triple clamp?
If so the opposite of twitchy/quicker steering because
sliding the forks up into the triple clamp changes rake/trail & makes the bike quicker steering which is something I dont care for myself.
Looses its neutral turn in feel & has a ledge where the bike goes from neutral feel to falling into turn at a different rate at some point in teh lean.
That of course is just my opinion of having raised the forks into the triple an extra 3/8" or so to accommodate some top side clip-ons.
I disliked it so much after two rides sold those clip-ons
But sounds like your going the other direction so I would "expect" slower steering.
