Default rocker riser question

I have decided on the 12" fat z bars and I want around a 2" riser. I am currently looking at the carlini piston riser. I am afraid that the gap between the risers will look bad because the bars stay skinny in the middle between the knarled portion instead of stepping back up to 1 1/4". Any advice is greatly wanted and appreciated! Thank you in advance.
