Have you considered swapping out for different footpegs? My previous bike was an SV650 (naked, not the S model). Even though it was a fairly upright standard and not a sportbike, my knees started killing me after a few hours on that near the end. I don't even want to think how bad it would have been on a supersport. Looking back I often wonder why I never bothered to simply change the footpegs for more leg room. (Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I ditched the SV and entered the world of Buells! 
). But if it's just your knees that are hurting, then changing the footpegs to something with more allowance could greatly improve your comfort. You'd be surprised at how little of a change in geometry (or cycle ergonomics) may alleviate your pain. Then no need to sell your beautiful Lightning!

Sell a child instead.
You could get the Ulysses foot pegs and brake line drops the peg about 3 inches. If it remains yours that would be the thing to do.

Cycle pirates makes a kit for buell's that can move the pegs to like 30 different positions or something like that, under 100 bucks as well i believe. Sorry to hear you need to sell though, just know there are options to make it more comfortable.
