Can a Honda Grom realistically be lowered enough for someone 4’7?

Hey guys, looking for some advice before I commit to buying a bike.

I’m 24 and 4’7 due to a disability, but aside from my height my body proportions are pretty normal. My dream is to ride a motorbike and I recently started looking into the Honda Grom after Honda told me it could potentially be lowered for me.

I tried sitting on a Honda Monkey and could just about tiptoe it without boots, although the seat felt quite wide which made it harder. Unfortunately they didn’t have a Grom in store for me to try.

My main question is how people physically lower bikes like the Grom and how realistic it is for someone my height. I’ve seen people mention lowering links, suspension adjustments and shaved seats, but I’m completely new to all of this and don’t know what’s actually safe or effective.

Open to any advice or suggestions from shorter riders 🙏
