The problem you are going to run into with this swap is that the reason for the longer seat on the Classic is the fact that the EFI computer is housed in the rear of the seat. There also are no mounts on the frame to attach the tail piece.

Here's a pic of my 82 LTD, very similar to your bike just no brain box to worry about. However there is quite a bit of open space that I think a box could be fabbed under the rear frame to accomodate it. Correct that the frame doesn't have the right mounting points for the cowl, but it doesn't look like it would be too difficult to make it work.
I had the cowl off of my 77 just lying around and I thought I'd stick it up there too see how it would look...
I will drag the frame off the 77 over and take a couple of shots of them side by side for comparison. I am somewhat determined to make this work. I will have to get more creative with the seat however..

Here is a thought...it is possible to have the 1st generation FI and have a normal seat w/tail cowling...
Consider exploring the structure on the Z1000-H1...which was the 1980 Euro edition of the KZ1000-G1.
