Pirellis fitted - Pterodactyl_imp - 06-25-2015

Had Pirelli Angel GTs (110/160) fitted today.

All that rubber!

Now, if only Honda would give me my OEM drive sprocket I could scrub them in.

Cheers

Wow! I don't know much about motorcycle tires, but those sure look a little "beefier" than the OEM tires that came on my new 14 DLX . . . .

Maybe a whole lot more "beefier", IDK . . .

Wow...those look serious!

Hi Pterodactyl, very nice! I've just fitted a new Bridgestone T-30 to the front of mine so I'll be interested in your thoughts on the handling of the Angel GT's and mileage you get out of them.

Perversely, perhaps, I like the lines across the tyres which, I assume means you can put them on in sections. Beer

I was eyeballing these after a nail in my PR3's, but I went with the T30's. I'll be curious what you think!

Awaiting a ride and performance report once they're properly scrubbed in.

Are they multi-compound like the Michelin's?


RE: Pirellis fitted - Papa Weeley_imp - 06-26-2015

Wow, those look healthy! I'd love to see what they look like on the bike!


RE: Pirellis fitted - Henrik_imp - 06-26-2015

Very much looking forward to hearing your feedback on these. If I decide to go for a 160 rear this is probably what I would get.

Yes, same profile numbers with deeper tread.

Will post a photo when Honda can find me a drive sprocket.

The Pirellis are well reviewed by the motorcycling press and stand up well against all major brands. I am really looking forward to getting them on the bike and getting rid of that wax.

Cheers
