First good ride

Finally got a decent length mixed ride in on the new f800gs. Rode mainly gravel, dirt, white rock, loomy dirt....put 250 miles on it this morning.
The stock Scorpion Trails handled everything fairly ok, however something with a little more meat would be nice. I do alot of harescrambles and enduros on a crf450x and the past several short gravel road rides on the f800gs, always felt a little weird. I think I just needed some miles on it, because it took everything we encountered with ease and felt great. Here are a few pics

Those are some great looking roads you've got there! I love riding that kind of stuff.
