Default Freight Train Nacelle compatible with Wild 1 Drag bars?

Does anybody know if this combo will work? The Wild 1 Drag Bars have integrated risers and it seems that I might have to mod the nacelle to get them to fit! My ride is 2016 Fatboy Lo, and as you have all probably guessed by now, I am busy planning my own look and it's not so easy checking for compatibly of different parts from different suppliers. Any and all advice will be most appreciated. Thank you

Wild1 501 Chubbys installed, was a bitch getting the cables through!! The grease helped but it was tough. Freight Train Nacelle not yet delivered! Also installed Arlen Ness Deep Cut grips and the DK Custom coil relocation kit with the Red plug wires and the Arlen Ness Deep Cut coil cover. I relocated the OEM cow bell horn to the front of the bike where you normally bolt on the engine guards. Ride looks ****in Schweet. Still waiting for black HD pop up gas cap and gas gauge, as well as the black HD brake and clutch levers, hopefully get those this coming week, so I can finish my summer mods. Then I can put the tank on and start her up! Woohoo can't wait. Problem is I can't ride until later September when it will hopefully cool down to something bearable , riding in 49 - 51 Deg C is not fun.

I'll post some pics when I'm done. In the mean time thanks to all that offered up advise and helped me get through the broken Allen key ball, that was a mess. Oh yeah, not going to go for the Love Jugs Mighty Mites at this stage, will revisit that another time, I'm also looking at the
Jag vertical oil cooler as an alternative because I don't spend a lot of time in traffic, I'll see.

Stay upright.
