Tourer sits too high for my short legs.

Get boots with thicker soles!

If you lower the bike then you may have to ride on only straight roads. Cowboy boots with proper heels - AND NON-SLIP SOLES - can work well, or stilettos if you prefer.

Scot in Exile is bang on the money, it's a low sitting bike, real low.

It's a seat width issue, don't drop the bike and ruin clearance, get a narrower seat!

I just got used to it... I'm 5'7" and when I first got my R3T I was also looking for lowering / seat change options but never actually made any changes. I don't think I would change anything now 1 year and 5.5k miles later. Maybe a new seat for comfort not necessarily for height change. Good luck either way...

The people that ride these (at the lat RAA), are from 5'7" to 7' feet tall. You will find something. The Scot in Exile is trying to buy your bike. Don't give in. Sell it to me!!

You got 9K it’s yours lol

know the feeling just had her out today, sitting parked up and people just kept coming over and admiring it. Fell in love with it first time I saw it, some days I have a great run other days not so good lol Nut as you say I’ll get used to it hopefully

Personally I think it is going to near impossible for you to get comfy on the rocket without some bone craft leg extensions, if you cannot control the bike just sitting on it wait until you try some slow tight turns, not being cruel just being truthful.
