Meter burn on fight stick?

So I just got my Hori SC5 stick in the mail. Quality is fantastic.
As a first time stick user, I'm finding it much easier to do quarter circles, etc
However, I can't figure out the meter burn! It's on r1, and on this stick that puts it somewhat out of the way. I can do it with my pinkie, but it just doesn't feel natural. Any suggestions?
