Why not?
If money is an issue and your short a few bucks I'm sure we can help you out.

Could this damper be installed while having handle bar risers installed? It appears that the damper is attached to the ingnition cover and I'm worried that the risers may make this application void. Would I have to get a cutom bracket made? Thanks.

It's hard for me to say exactly whats necessary without seeing your bike and being able to play around with it all first hand, but one of our customers who has risers simply flipped the bracket that goes from the top of the handlebar mount upside down and it works perfectly.
Whether your solution will be that easy, or require a little more modification I can't say for sure.

To use these dampers with riser setups you need new spacers and mounting bolts to the ignition housing that are longer by the same amount of the new riser. This way all the mounting points, heights, etc... remain the same and it is still a direct bolt on. We've had several people do this who have risers or triples such as what SpeedyMoto offers.

This is the Bitubo Damper mounted on the Hypermotard EVO SP.
The EVO SP comes with bar risers, but to make it work with the Bitubo damper, you only have to flip the top mounting bracket upside down as shown:
for reference, here is the Bitubo damper kit mounted to a standard Hyper
