Hi my fellow bikers

I am interested to buy a Yamaha XT660R.

I am a real shorty (1.67m). Is there a way to lower the bike so that I can reach the ground? I have to lower the bike between 5 to 8 cm.
I am not going to ride out mountains or anything, just the normal gravel road or 2. And of course the potholes in the lovely South Africa.

I heard about lowering links, but not sure how safe it will be.
