There aren't any of those I would trade for my Honda 450R, but if someone was giving them away I would take a YFZ.
I have ridden the Raptor 700 quite a bit and don't like the ergonomics much, but you are bigger than I am so it might fit you better than me.

700 for the mountains.
YFZ for the dunes and track.

How about the new Outlaw 525? I hear they will tear up just about anything....and you can go straight axle or IRS if you do a lot of trails.

first off what kind of riding do you do? if you ride alot of trails i whould get the raptor 700. i have one and have been very pleased with it. if you ride track i whould get the ltr-450. my second choice whould be the yfz450 and the last choice whould be the can-am 450 just because it is a first year bike and chould have some problems.

the stright axle 525 looks pretty nice. the only thing thats turns me off about it is that it is a first year bike and chould have some minor problems. one thing i like more about the raptor and ltr450 is that they are fuel injected.

i think the 700 raptor whould be a good choice for you. it is the best all around quad i have ever had. love the efi engine and the stock suspestion does very well also.

It all depends, I'm not a fan of the IRS Outlaws myself, bad at doing powerslides and donuts, and I heard that they are lemons, the Suzuki is a good choice, just get the dealer to throw some 20s on the back, its not the best trail quad, its pretty good everywhere else, get the cherry bomb installation and thats a cheap powerboost, I'm a fan of can-am myself, and the new 450 looks like a really nice quad, fuel injection, lightest weight, good tires, amazing engine and suspension, the yfz and raptor are good choices too, both are very reliable, the raptor has fuel injection and reverse, and the yfz is very fast and light, and has great suspension, especially on the SE models, every one on your list is a good choice, just consider where you ride

the raptor is a great choice, but for mountains a self-adjusting efi is better for changes in altitude, so the kawasaki kfx would be good for that, or the suzuki with bigger tires

for some reason it doesnt adjust to altitude, air temp, fuel temp changes, etc
