Any chance you can remove the damper cylinder body clamp angled/offset arm and drill a hole through the top of the clamping split large enough to get an 8mm allen head bolt to go straight down to the tank mount? That's how I mounted my 990 SD's steering damper. No offset on my damper body clamp mount and no lock to lock interference.![]()

Don't know if that will give you the clearance you need but visualizing it, it does appear to move the body clamp away from the handlebar clamps. Just throwing out ideas.
