Halp! My front brakes locked up!

So, the bike has been riding fine, and about a week ago I checked the pads and they were healthy, only 8k on them. Yesterday, I put new levers on, and then today I managed to get 3 miles to words work when the front brakes locked up on me. I checked the front brake lever, and it's super stiff, like it's fully compressed, the disks are super hot for a short ride, and I have no idea what to start doing to fix this. I throw myself on the collective wisdom of the forum for help, and will sacrifice a virgin GSXR to the KTM gods if it'll help.
Something got messed up with the level install.

Pull the lever off and check everything.
