In all honesty you'd probably look a little goofy, but so do small people on bikes. You could shoot for a bigger bike or if you are really that worried about it just secretly go on a diet(not in a rude way) and have the bike in the mean time and laugh about in a year or two:]
Why give a toss? You are riding a bike, not mincing down a catwalk.
If you are an experienced rider and are comfortable on the bike you will look like a reasonably competent rider on an extremely fast bike. If you are a novice you will look like an accident waiting to happen.
Bike will look small and you will look and be cramped. Presume this is your first bike. If yes, keep reading. 600 cc sport bikes are terrible machines for a beginner. All the bike will accomplish is empty your wallet with insanely high insurance premiums and will hinder the learning curve. Very few motorcycles will fit your height. I speak as a 6'1" tall rider.
With your size, maybe you would be more comfortable on a larger cc bike. It sounds like you want a sports bike though. I myself can't ride the supersports because the handlebars are way too low. Even the Suzuki SV650S is too low for me.
