Welcome to the site Gominis.  Yes, the 09 Ultra is at least 2" taller seat height than your 05. .  Your 05 is lowered 1" from the factory and the 09's have a 17" front tire.  May not be exact 2" but close.  Arnott and several other companies make an air ride that is adjustable in height on the go.  Hit the "search" button and start reading.

Welcome from Oklahoma!

Arnott and Legend make air adjustable shocks.  You can lower two or three inches with these.

Another option is Burly Brackets... you can lower the height about 1.5 inch.  Much cheaper option too.
