If you have passed your full A1 motorcycle licence tests, you will have to pass the practical test again, but not the Motorcycle Theory Test. As an intermediate motorcycle licence, A2 licence bikes will have at least 395cc and a power output of between 25kW and 35kW. Once you have completed your A2 Licence, you will have a full restricted motorcycle licence which means you can ride an intermediate motorcycle with no L plates, carry a passenger, be able to go to motorways.

The only bikes I have any knowledge about would be one of the small displacement Kawasaki KZ's. Like a KZ440, 550, or a 300. I haven't strayed too far yet in bike realms. A ninja 250/300 maybe? It shares the same engine as my versys, but has a lower seat height. It will do ~95 mph (150 kph). It's 175 kg though.

Have you had much seat time on a bigger bike? I find that once you get used to only being able to reach the ground with one foot it's fine. I ride my KZ1100 and can only put one foot on the ground. I'm 135 lbs (61 kg) and 5'7" (1.7 metres). It's ~600 lbs.

I'm not trying to recommend getting a huge bike, just try to keep an open mind. Because that ninja should be a pretty easy ride. One of my friends is 5' 4" (1.63 m) and can just about reach both feet flat footed on her Ninja 500 (with riding boots).
