Did a little rock hopping and rut dodging today.
This bike is fun with the 18x21 Wheels..
Ran into some guys on BMW 1200's and a KTM 990, they was a bit snobby until i broke out the Oatmeal Raisin cookies then it was like WoW Cookies in the Mountains. O:)

Need a skid plate and a better rear shock or I would have been dusting these guys.. :-*
At the top.


Good road..



Getting chunky..




At this point I was alone heading to an old abandoned Ranger Station, if I had a partner I may have tried it.
It looked worse in person ahead was two foot deep criss crossing gutters on a steep muddy incline I turned back..
:'(



The Cookie Monsters.

Great run! And you showed some smarts too, knowing when to fold 'em is an important trait when on our machine.


Best latch onto a skid plate soon.

I think it was more like I was on a Jap Bike keeping up with them, they asked a lot of questions and one guy says it's cost a lot less than the GS.
I also was wearing jeans and hiking boots not decked out in Klim's, I was more into exploring than tear A$$ing up the mountain.. ::26::
I am feeling that ride today good therapy for the banged up right leg Lol!
