Seat heights on supersports are all over the place. I fit on my Gixxer like a glove. On a R6 I'm on tiptoes. I will never own a Yamaha for that reason.

A 390 would be perfect but a too-tall seat is a deal-killer for me... I need to live with a bike in the real world, where there's sand, gravel, uneven pavement etc. I need to get at least the ball of a foot down or sooner or later the bike will get dropped.
