I picked up an '09 FE450 a couple weeks ago, and all I can say is WOW! When the new model first came out, I was in love, now I have one in my garage. 
For a little write up about her, see:

My buddy has a KTM 250XCW. We switched bikes. Now I know I don't want to go back to a 2 stroke. He was also blown away at how fast the Berg is and how great the suspension is. I have ridden other 250/310/450 enduro bikes, but NOTHING has blown me away like the FE450.
I am slowly getting it in race shape, Installed a custom map switch, Tubliss tire insert went on the front last night.
My first enduro is a couple weeks. If I can't finish better than middle of the pack on this bike, I'm in the wrong sport. The only problem is that the wife is jealous, I am spending more time with the sexy new Swede than her!
