Default Lowering SV1000

I'm considering buying an SV1000, but the seat height is the deal-breaker.

Is there any way to lower the bike by about two inches? Are there any aftermarket suspension linkages to do this?

This would make it possible for me to ride one.

My next concern would be whether lowering an SV by two inches would ruin the ride or handling.

Any info appreciated.
