Default Freight Train Headlight Nacelle Question

I am thinking about getting the Harley Freight Train Headlight Nacelle for my 2012 FatBoy Lo, but I don't want to change the risers. Does anyone know if you can run the stock risers if the riser cover is not used? The riser kit it calls for (I think they are the same that come stock on the RK) will change the pullback and height of my bars, which I don't want.

Edit: I found some pics of the nacelle with different risers, but the stock risers on my Lo are oval at the base. Not sure how much clearance there is between the top of the nacelle and the risers. Thanks...
