Top 3 Pirelli Angel ST Reviews

Given 87% while driving a Yamaha FJR1300A (120/70 R17) on mostly motorways for 230 average miles
I have been using Pirelli Angel St's on my Yamaha FJR1300 for the last six years and I wouldn't use any other tire. I find it gives me so much confidence going into and out of corners and it's brilliant in the wet. As for tire pressures I have increased them by an extra 4 psi higher than book specifications. So, 44 psi in the rear and 42 psi in the front and it stops the cupping. It also makes them so much more responsive.

Given 79% while driving a Suzuki 2000 vatari jx2.0 (120/60 R17) on a combination of roads for 5,000 average miles
Front tire lasted about 5000 miles,rear tires about 4000 miles. Great on my suzuki bandit 600. Tried a few other pirellis but this is the best one for my bike in my opinion.

Latest Pirelli Angel ST Reviews

Given 83% while driving a Suzuki Bandit 1250 SA (180/55 R17) on mostly country roads for 5,800 spirited miles
I ride the Adelaide Hills on a Suzuki Bandit 1250, a rather heavy sports tourer. My riding style is brisk, but nearly always legal. My priorities are overall stability, light and neutral steering (meaning that no effort is needed to maintain a line through a corner), long life, and of course, price. With the Angel STs, I think I made an excellent choice. The dry grip is very good (no slides or surprises) but then again, I do not ride like a Casey Stoner wannabe. I cannot comment on wet grip because I try hard to avoid rain and on the rare occasion I do get caught on wet roads, I ride like Casey's grandmother. Both front and rear need replacing after approximately 9000km which is a bit less than I had hoped for, but it is a heavy bike. When I first got them new, I was very impressed by how light and precise the steering became, like the bike lost 50 Kg instantly. When new(ish), the Angel STs track corners effortlessly and do not stand up if front brakes are applied while leaned over. The degree of wear is about the same front and rear, but the treads has retained their shape even after 9000+ kms, so the steering is still quite good, although they're a bit reluctant on initial turn-in when compared to new. Nevertheless, they perform much better than the Dunlop Roadsmarts they replaced, which were nearly unrideable at their wear limit. Stability has never suffered regardless of wear and they deal with bumpy roads pretty well, comfort- and grip-wise, which is good because we have a lot of crap roads. The Angel STs really suit the Bandit 1250. If the price is right, I would buy them again.

Given 86% while driving a Suzuki GSR 600 (180/55 R17) on mostly country roads for 8,000 average miles
Used mostly (+80%) on long trips with passenger and full luggage on dry, rainy or snowy Alpine mountain passes and along the Adriatic coast while temperature higher than 30 °C - always predictable and reliable, no need to be concerned in speedish or risky situation. Rear tire worn to the thread marker after 12 000 km, time to change it. Front tire will last for 2 rear tires.
Used on Suzuki GSR 600 and my conclusion is that rear tire likes more weight (passeger+luggages) in harsh braking situation.

Given 89% while driving a Suzuki SV650S (160/60 R17 W) on mostly country roads for 8,000 easy going miles
Bouht the Pirelli Angel ST for rear for a 7000Km trip along Europe (Zagreb-Lisbon).
It was a very good choice. It´s the do-i-tall tire.
It performs good in the rain. The wear is great and the confidende on the curves is good also. Braking in wet is good, but there are better tires for rain.
The not so good thing is that it take about 2 to 5 minutes to get warmer, and achieve the maximum performance when you want to lean your bike; as it is not a hyper sticky sport tire.
If you want to make a long bike trip you should get the Angel ST, as you will not need a fast warming, the grip is ok and the wear is fantastic.
