i'm driving a 650R and indeed a massive power machine! which can get you in a lot of trouble when not handled well as rich pointed out. but then again when you get used to it it's a massive thrill!! I don't worry about the subframe strength either...it held on several trips in severe conditions, with luggage on the rear and front. have driven a 400 as well (a 1997 model though) and it felt pretty comfortable and very light, and indeed powerfull enough to do intensive offroad...but it's not quite the same as the 650.
