Is it possible to modify a Yamaha type tiller handle to fit onto my merc. motor?

The factory merc. handle is to short and pretty basic. I really like the Yamaha handle and it would be the perfect length for my set up.

If it can be modified relatively easily to fit my motor I am thinking of buying a used one online and getting it hooked up.

If anyone has experience with a similar situation it would be greatly appreciated what I should probably do.

Thanks in advance for any input.
