i dont know much about adjusting but im sure that you can lower it a bit
im 5'8 with short legs:((comparing with other 5'8 people my legs are shorter) and i dont have problems, well i cant touch the ground with both feet in full but im fine, maybe because im used to 03 600rr, the same seat height ;)

Have you sat on one yet? It's pretty low already (at the seat). As long you aren't trying to flat foot it you may be surprised. It's not as heavy as earlier models so balance at stops may be even less of an issue.

Then leave it as is, it's a freakin dream when it comes to handling and cornering.
