My local dealer gave me a call to inform me they had the vfr1200 on the showroom floor. So I stopped by yesterday....forgot my camera, but it does exist. Just a beautiful refined looking machine.
Anyway, at 5'4" seat height is always a concern and I assume for other vertical challenged out there. Threw my leg over and was pleasantly surprised both the balls of my feet were on the ground. Tiptoes for me on the "06". The 32.1" seat height is not that big of a deal with this narrow seat, and I understand there is a low seat option.

You know the lower the seat is, the tighter the leg cramping seat to peg relation, I run a tall seat, as long as foot will reach its all I need
