I ride a WR250R - it's been lowered by professionally adjusting suspension as opposed to a lowering link. I also have a lowered seat. I can put one foot down and that seems enough, although it would have been a terrible bike to learn on - too tall and heavy. I'm 5'4" - 164 cm.
If you ride as a pair, I think it's ideal to have both people on the same kind of bike. It's ok to adjust each to the rider's liking as far as ergonomics are concerned, but keep the engines the same as much as possible. If you have a 650 paired with a 250 - it can become dangerous because the one riding a 650 will be tempted to go faster, and the one on 250 will be suffering and often having to take unnecessary risks to keep up. Ask me how I know 
Not to mention that it really helps with troubleshooting and maintenance when you have two identical bikes. Is this part supposed to be like that? Hm, let's check the other bike. Keeps it simple.
