Unless you are a lot shorter than 5' 6" (I'm 5' 4") you should get used to it. I can only put one foot on the ground at a time on both of my bikes (83 kz1100 and 17 versys 300). I think it is more of a mind thing than a physical limitation.
z900rs: 835 mm (32.8 in)
Versys: 815 mm (32.1 in)
KZ1100: 760 mm (30 in)

PS: I am surprised at how tall the z900rs seat height is.

www.kawasaki.ca/

Kawasaki Canada's web-site lists the New Z900RS all editions. And the seat height non-cafe is 800mm ( 31.5" ). A little better.

I wonder if this bike is coming to the USA ?

I hope it comes to the US. I would definitely consider getting one, but with a price tag of $13,500 (for the cafe), I am not sure when I would be able to.

If you got that $ figure from Kawasaki Canada then I'm thinking that's Canadian $. At today's exchange rate of about 78 cents US to 1 Canadian $ then you would be looking at about $10,530 US if available in the States

If that's correct in the US pricing, I would be in consideration of one too !
