I have both and haven't had a problem yet.
As I run lights and a handlebar bag, I modified a space grip to fit the fork crown hole on my Heron. Using a cheap pipe cutter, I reduced the width of the tube to 3 inches and modified the base with a dremel to avoid the lower part of the headset. Used 2 cheap chrome H-bar plugs to dress up the ends. It now ratchets up or down. Clears the H-bar bag perfectly and looks like it was meant for the bike. My light is a Nightrider "Minewt." I've had many ask where they could purchase one and where I got it. As I've never been able to post a pic to this forum w/o a half hours worth of hassle, send a pm if you'd like a pic.
