Default risers & top clamps....

I ordered new risers for my Deluxe from Chubby & was advised (somewhere) that I could use my stock HD top clamp w/ the new riser. Is it me, or is that wrong info.? It appears that the mounting holes on the Chubby risers are not centered like they are on the top clamp.....which means that I would need a new top clamp from Chubby as well. Is this correct, or am I missing something?
