Default Freight Train Nacelle on raked trees?

Anyone running a Harley Freight Train nacelle on their Fatboy/Heritage using HHI 4 degree raked trees? Does the nacelle point upwards too much and look weird?

Im converting my my Night Train to an FL front end and need to use the raked trees with my 23" wheel. My Freight Train nacelle is already on the way, and it didnt even dawn on me that it may point up a little too much when I ordered it. Doh!!

There was or is a member on here that goes by mfmaine. Search for him and you might be able to find some answers to your question. He had or has a fatboy low with 4* trees and a nacelle.

Not exactly what you are asking for, but I have freight train nacelle and 3 degree trees - no issue with nacelle pointing upwards.

Not very clear on your question either it sounds like you want to run longer risers, you can but you just wont be able to use the Naclle riser cover which finishes the look. On one of my other bikes I used the stock 4" Deluxe risers with no issues till i switched them out for shorties just didn't care for the unfinished look. Hope this helps.
