This looks like a full mx bike - note the shallow steering head angle (long trail). Honda mx bikes are really long compared to my yz and ktm. To me its a design more suited to high speed supercross or desert racing where straight line stability is key. It's odd that the yz is so tall. Much taller than the ktm 250xc but probably around the same length. My crf250r was much longer then either bikes and in fact probably the longest wheelbase bike I've ever owned.
My riding is much more technical, on the pegs, winding my way around tree trunks which have less clearance than my bars. So the KTM will be sweet for that - low center of gravity, low seat (comparatively) and moderate wheelbase.
I don't see a downtube from the steering stem down to the engine.
