Sweet!
The cables will reach the extra .25", but I think the clutch and brake mastercylinders will hit the inner windsheild with the heli-bars at full lock.
As said, another member claims to have the 1" and bars, I'll see if I can find the thread and who it was.
I wouldn't want to guess or tell you something I personally was unsure of.
Even though my spacers are homemade, they are mass produced also...I just need to find where I've seen them
Troppo is the member with 1" risers and heli-bars. His post is #32 in the link below. You can pm him and ask if he has had any clearance or cable issues.

200 miles and changing up already? Nah just poking fun at you boss. We did a 3520 mile 10 day trip before making the "list" and I can honestly say that an ST screen, bar risers, and seats will be all we buy.
We hopped off every 100 miles or so as my butt would get sore and having an ST screen would push the air just high enough to clear my head and the bar risers will hopefully change the ergo's just enough when added with seats will make our Busa (Fionna) perfect.

Your legs and wrists hurt because you haven't built up the muscles needed for the riding position of the Busa. You are putting too much pressure on the bars. You should be holding you body up with your legs and core muscles, not your arms.

I had the same problem. 1st really cheap fix was grip puppies, and then new image seat, I didn't do the buell peg mod yet because I'm really comfy now. one day i will try them though. grip puppies only around 12 bucks. are your hands getting numb from the vibrations? the new image seat changes your ridding position and drops you in the bike 1 1/2 to 2 inches, sounds strange but it helps even if your tall

Did he happen to mention if he had any issues with the 1 inch riser? That is all I have left to get to help my comfort, I have all the other mods done, however the 3/4 riser is hard to find for the soupey style, I emailed them a while back and they do not offer 3/4. The only option I have seen is the genmar which is about $140 or so, or make custom ones. I also have grip puppies, but mine have started to fall apart after a year and half.
Actually, you are better having the wind hit you in the chest. The air pressure helps hold you up so you don't fatigue as quickly, and helmets are designed to run in clear air so you could get buffeting behind the screen.

Can it be fixed with a little rotation?
Kevin - 'hands numb' is a fancy way to say you need a set of Thottlemeisters.
Super-popular with members here, I've been using the same set on the Busa going on 8 years now. They pay for themselves 10-fold.
We have a silver base model (FH & AZ3) in stock I'll make ya a deal on. Normally don't stock these.
Running around doing 1000 mile weekends with no sore hands - these are the magic secret.
