(And how much do you weigh, if you don't mind revealing)

I tower over the bike at a mighty 5'3" and 110 lbs and I have no idea what my inseam is, but I'm sure that's mighty too :p

When I sat on the bike at the dealer, I don't know what height they set the seat at, but I was able to touch the ground with the balls of my feet rather comfortably and this was with regular shoes. One of my main reasons for choosing this bike was that it accommodated my size very well and despite its heavy weight on paper, it felt very light to handle.

Was the low seat height a factor in your decision to purchase the 6R?

im 5' 7" and a very skinny 160. but your right about the weight one paper vs in real life. my only gripe about the fz6r is the ""rear sets" if you can call them that, they are that really long crazy looking thing that run half the length of the bike.

I am ashamed to admit that I had to google your height.
Darn the U.S. for for adopting its own system of measurements that no one else uses. The only thing the English system is good for is the quarter inch, I recall reading.

5'9" and about 160. Coming from cruisers I still wanted to flat-foot the bike and this one I can even on the high setting which I like. As for the weight it feels very light and easy to manuever to me, again I'm coming from 700+ lb bikes (I'm having a blast manuevering this bike around).

I ride on '07 FZ6, not the R, and I'm also a mighty 5'3" (short people unite!) and a lightweight. Absolutely no problems, but then I also ride a BMW which is as tall as the FZ6 but has a wider seat. So I've learned how to adapt.
