Default 05 SV-S - ergos

Well, got to spend the last week of my vacation in the saddle of my new SV.
A little over 1000 miles later, I realize I'm probably one of those that "shoulda got the naked one instead"
Problem is that my arms seems too short, so when I lean forward to get my arms & shoulders in a relaxed position, it gets very tiring in my back as I have to stretch forward to reach the bars. Subsequently, I only use the front of the seat, so the butt starts to hurt too after short time.

I swapped bikes with a buddy , riding a 02 gsxr 750 (whoa - what a motor!) , the riding position felt much more natural for me, I expected the gixxer to have a more extreme riding position.

So I'd like to get the handlebars moved slighly back and up - what's the easiest way to accomplish this?
