Bubba Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) I put a set on my FZ1. Easy to mount and didn't require much weight to balance, so high quality carcass.Rode 'em for several thousand miles--around town and on a week-long tour to NC where there was much 'hooning'….They stuck very well and had good turn-in feel. Good wet weather manners as well. Note that I did switch from the OE 190/50 to a 190/55 and it helped a lot.Also mounted a set on a friend's FZ and he loves them too. He's getting about 6-7K miles use of pretty hard street riding (no track).He's on his second pair and plans on buying again when this set is shot. Bottom line--you can get longer lasting, you can get stickier, you can get cheaper, but these do it all pretty well for a reasonable price.

Casper Posted August 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 How do they compare to the Pilot Road 4's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e-flores Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) I've heard nothing but good things about them. I suggested them to my brother in law and he loves them. Edited August 21, 2014 by e-flores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinNck1 Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 I have a set on my BMW, and they are a great tire. I have about 7000 miles on my front and still have good tread. Don't know about the rear. Darn nail forced an early replacement. They stick really good and it takes a good bit to slide one on my 700 lb bike.

dustinsn3485 Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 Pr3 as far as I'm concerned are better than the pr4. Angels are outstanding. I think the angel and pr3 are near equals until the rain starts and the pr3 edges out the Pirelli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 How do they compare to the Pilot Road 4's? With respect to….? I agree with Dustin's assessment about the Pirellis vs the Mich PR3s. Never ridden the 4s. I think the Pirellis are a bit less expensive than the 4s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueskeyes Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 I am running a set on my Tuono. I have had them on for 4500 miles and love them. They have been on the Dragon twice, once in the wet and no traction problems. Still have plenty of wear. Get some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connie14 Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 The PR4s are a nice tire. The are good in wet weather. They seem to have good longevity (still on my first pair). They are plenty sticky in the twisties. I will be getting them again. I have not ridden the Angels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dying Shadow Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 I did a track day on my angels....uhhh Yea that's all I got lol seemed like they stuck fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) IMO, GTs are a little better in the dry. PRs are a little better in the wet. I have GTs on the CBR and VFR1200 right now. I've been through 3 or 4 sets of PR2 & 3 They are very close and both very good. Get some. Edited August 21, 2014 by Tpoppa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) Getting 6-8K on the rears and the front i took off Pokey and i figured it had 10-12k on it but it was a ST. Current GT front has about 6k and it has some cupping going on, I'm thinking its due to the many freeway miles from the IronButt ride, but i think ill still get a few more out of it. In the wet i have noticed they are by far the best at displacing the water in a strait line than any tire ive ever run, but cornering in the wet ive felt some slippage(usually the rear on hard accel). In the dry they are more tire than ill ever need, never a slip or falter. I'll keep running them until something else catches my eye. Best place for pricing of them is usually jakewilson.com Edited August 21, 2014 by 2talltim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschoolsdime92 Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 I love the angel GT's. I railed the absolute hell out of them on my fz1. Ran two track days, and a ton of mountain miles. new- mounted by hoblick track day- ran them at 30/30, and performed flawlessly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollnhot Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Can't beat price or performance. You all know I put some miles on my bikes, it's the only tire I use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 I get 7k to 8k out of a rear, about double out of a front. I'm never gentle with the throttle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heagachongoose Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 I know its comparing apples to oranges but has anybody ran Q3's and angel gt's on the same bike? How do they compare performance-wise? How does turn in compare? Similar tire shape? My two favorite things about the q3 are the solid feel, no squirming no play, and the tall profile. Obviously the Pirelli will last longer and the q3 is going to be stickier. It is after all a sport/track tire. I've been running the dunlops all season and I love them. I'm just getting tired of replacing my rear tire every month and the angel gt is definitely on my check out list. Sorry for the thread jack. This is semi relevant though I suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 ^^^GTs are round profile (very similar to the Mich PR series). The turn in won't be as fast as steeper SS tires. That took a little getting used to. Now I prefer it. I think the round profile is superior for the street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heagachongoose Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 ^Thanks. Don't think my q3's will last for the fall ride.... or the end of the week rather lol. About to pull the trigger on these. $267 shipped from rockymountainatvmc.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
