fazer1sniper Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 With the word of riders on several forums, I got a set of Pirelli Angel ST's on my '04 FZ1.My FZ has allways been rough on tires. In past seasons I have had DumpLaps (hated them) BattLax (decent wear but poor grip) Lasst yeat Metzler M3's ( loved them, but not the 3K i got out of them. I was able to put my first 100 miles on the angels Saturday. With every intention of taking it "easy" on brand new rubber... That lasted till I got to the "fun" roads.I did most of the miles on two state routes here in east Ohio. Rt 170 (south and north and south again, and Rt 7 south and north. Pirelli's replacent for the Diablo Strada has me all smiles so far. Great grip on the launch and stop. No skid in hard downshifting. No worries in the corners. Pirelli claims 7500 mile life. Some riders claimimg even more. My FZ is far from a geat "knee-dragging" bike, but I find myself getting more confident all the time. If the long term is as good as my first impressions of this rubber I plan on alot more time in the corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
