Default Tank Lift

I have a 14 low rider and just purchased a 2" tank lift . I love the lines with a lifted tank .
I didn't put the kit on mine as I had a problem with clearance . The handlebar mounts are in the way and if I lift the tank I am estimating I am losing 1-2 inches turning each side . It doesn't appear that I can easily use a riser given
the design and how it all fits with the headlight bracket
Anyone else tried a tank lift on the new low rider? Any suggestions? ideas?
Thanks

I just raised the tank on the trike. 1 and 1/2 in the front and 1/2 in the rear. When I raised the rear it slightly changed the angle and also let me slide the tank back just enough to clear the bars and cables. Jim

thanks ! Ill have to look into that , I never considered raising the rear however using the rear to rotate it back may work ,, the low rider has an odd (to me) front handlebar mount that gives 2 points of handlebar adjustment
I'll put up a picture late
