I used a washer stack that's about the thickness of the nut at the other end

Here are the risers

I removed the tie that held the wires and hoses to the handlebar and just tied them together. I also bent the wire retainer on the right side of the instrument cluster away enough so that the brake line could slide inside it. That is a fairly thick and stiff retainer -- I used a slide hammer with a gear puller attachment to pull it away from the cluster. Hook one of the gear puller ends over the retainer wire and have at it until there is enough clearance.

I would think the genmar risers would install similarly. The ROX risers for 7/8" bars may also work for the fairing mount since you retain the original handlebar clamp when using them. I'm not sure that you would have enough brake/clutch line length when using the ROX risers though.

Nice application, great pictures, thanks!
I have cables running to the inside of the mounts. Running them outside opens up some additional room. As per usual you gents have provided the assistance I needed and then some. 2" makes me a bit nervous even though it permits angular adjustment.
The argument of tried and true is very valid in this case. Replacement/modification of the lines is not a thing I wish to dive into.
