Converting a lightning long into a ulysses

[Captain Awesome]

*alternate title, "The ladies like 'em longer"

So, I love my xb12ss, but my lady, who also loves my xb12ss, wishes she had a bit more room. I've been looking at tail sections of Ulys and comparing them to my SS. I've been looking at just getting a different seat (like the baldwin seat miami78 has http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/32777/527255.html?1263225525 )Between the seat and the tail section, the Uly looks a bit longer, and I'd imagine with the right seat, a bit more comfortable. We've considered getting a dedicated touring/adventure bike, but I really don't want to give up my XB12

Having looked at a ton of pictures of the underseat sections of Ulys, and my own bike, it seems a simple swap-- unbolt the back of my bike, swap for uly parts, call it a day.

Any thoughts or opinions on the subject? Any Ga Uly owners who'd like to meet up for coffee and comparison?
