@ Kartikeya | I am 5'6" too.. long rides will be enjoyable in 390 as it has the power to cruise comfortably on the highway. you can easily get used to the seat height. won't be a problem.

See old answers ...adjust handle bar height ..foot pegs..sitting posture..shoulder and elbow lean..in the showroom..we need tip of toe to control bike..start learning in a tarred road ...avoid traffic..initially ..oh buy insole to your riding boots...good luck and ride safe.

You might find a difficulty in the city traffic as you'll have to be balancing the bike on one leg. but the bike is light and easy to handle so I'd say go for it.
