This sounds strange to me :\ I am 5'11"- 6'0" which isn't a great deal taller than you and i have fitted a 'jack UP' kit to mine and can still get both feet to the floor albeit easier to just use one.
How long have you owned the bike? My point is you may have a 'jack up' kit already fitted and would be fine dropping down to standard height dogbones. I think that a 'lowering kit' can make the handling a bit wallowy and slow the steering down from what i have heard. Makes sense really as the 'jack up' kit sharpens things up so you would expect a lowering kit to do the opposite.
Have a check underneath at the dogbones and see what markings are on them.

Yamaha Fazer 'the only bike you'll ever need' maybe ???
