If you really dont have a brand prefrence I say get a KTM 450.As said above shorten the suspension by just sending it out,and shave alittle foam out of the seat.Your biggest problem with a big bike will be starting it.Thats why I say the KTM would be a great choice since its E-start.Everyone falls once and a while and it will be one of those times when it just wont start.Thats when you will wish you got the KTM.

BTW I am now a KTM lover by any means.I ride yz450s myself but think the ktm would be the better bike in this case.
