Why put a road only tire on an adventure bike? 🙋🏼‍♀️ I'll answer that! From the looks of most ADV bikes I see out in the road, you can tell that a pretty good percentage never leave the pavement. I purchased a 2021 Tenere 750 for a road trip through Central and South America, but due to the pandemic I am delaying my trip about two years, give or take a few months. Meanwhile my T7 is being used as a commuter bike with 97% of the time being on pavement. And about 85% of that on freeways. For the time being I do not need a 50/50/ 70/30, or even a 80/20 tire. Specially with winter coming and I will be riding my bike rain or shine. I am looking for the best cold weather and rain tires I can find for Rosie (my bike - yes I name my bikes). It seems that everyone everywhere who do videos or ride reviews about ADV bike tires assume that everyone who has an ADV have one because they want to do off roading as well. Some people buy a bike, such as a 1250GS for the look and let's face it, even though it is an ADV bike it makes for a great road touring bike as well. I guess that my search for the best rain tires for my ADV will continue. There are some amazing tires such as the Pilot 4 tires, but they don't make them in si es that will fit mine bike. Someone should make a review and test of this class of tires.

After running this tyre on the rear, I just put a Pilot road 4 GT also on the front this week....lets see. I've used pilot road 3 and 2 in the past and I've even tried the Avon Storm and the bridgestone BT020s. I feel more confident on the Michellins.

I love the Heidenau Scouts. Ran the back for 12,000 miles, and the front for 17,000 miles (and still going). Great 80-20 tire with a continuous bead on the rear so you don get shaken to death on the pavement. They also have run flat capability, so much to the point that I barely noticed it when I picked up a puncture.. Ran them through North, Central and South America and was very happy with their versatility. Pretty much everyone I ran into that had a BMW 1200 GS were running these tires.

I'd have the Angel GT for a year now. Overall a great tire. I primary use my FZ6 for daily commuting rain or shine, but I do like to get somewhat aggressive in the corners on a dry day. The tire has performed great and I would buy it again. However, I did see a lot more center wear. Since 90% of my riding is on the center, fully upright, I did expect this a bit, just not so quickly.

True. You need more contact surface on the edges. The Perelli is probably your best choice, out of these tires. But why sacrifice any of your "dry road grip" so that you can go fast in the rain ? 🌧🏍💨 Best advice; Just buy a good set of "Sport Tires" and slow down in the rain.

Yet another informative vid from FortNine. I have a newly purchased FJR arriving soon which I’ll probably spoon on a set of Pilot Road 4’s. Lots of positive reviews on that tire. Currently I have Roadsmarts on my ZRX12 but I can attest to the Battlax BT series in the wet as I rode about 25 miles to a friends house in a pouring monsoon on a set. Crossing two bridges! Never gave me a reason to doubt them. Kinda ironic a MC tire company would call its system EMS. In my neck of the woods that’s Emergency Medical Services. As a multi bike owner I’ll probably stick with the Dunlop Qualifiers on my Blackbird. Outstanding dry weather grip and in inclement weather it’ll prolly be the FJR on the road anyway. Thanks again for a well done review.

well ive got the pilot road 4 and are highly impressed. it has better ride comfort and feels like a magnet sticking to road in rain / heavy rain. i ride a aprilia shiver 750 and this is my second rear tyre being another pilot 4 as the 1st one easily gave me 9562kms. I was not gentle on 1st tyre speeding round everywhere. Now suitably impressed with the pilot ive gone and shod both front and rear in them, and traveled nearly 8500kms. cant fault the tyre, exept if centre was just a bit more harder could be the only room for improvement.

My Multistrada GT obviously came with the Pirelli Angel GT, agreed that it is a great super sticky tire but i did not like the wet handling. Bought the Pilot Road 4 GT after and am absolutely happy, rode through a couple of heavy down poor's (standing water on highway) and the bike felt planted AF. Mine last about 12500 km on the rear, would always buy them again.

My previous tires on my Honda Pan European were Road Pilot 3s. Very good and got about 27,000ks from them. Recently replaced them with a pair of Road Pilot 4 GTs. The heavier side walls of the GT version make a big difference to the handling on such a heavy bike. I highly recommend them and cheaper than the Continental and Metzler equivalent. Good video; not the usual US rubbish.

I have just one question and I would appreciate the answer. If I'll have to chose between Pirelli Angel GT and Michellin Pilot Power 3 for my Honda Hornet 920cc, which one would be better option. 95% of the time I'm doing dry city roads, streets, motorways and highways, rarely wet and rainy conditions. Longevity is desirable but not over good grip while cornering. Thanks for your time. Appreciate comment.

I live in Australia with warm weather but we do get monsoon rains at times. I have a ZX14, no traction control or ABS. I have Bridgestone BT23 front and rear. The front has been rock solid from day 1 but the rear was shocking. 150Kw is a heap of power to hold but it spins up, slipped on down shift and I was really questioning my choice. After about 700Km, suddenly stabilised and it has been brilliant.

I've had both and i agree with fortnine, Angel GT sucks in the rain comparing with PR4. Angel GT is tolerable since you keep it pretty much vertical and soft on acceleration/braking. Start leaning a little more and it starts to slide easily, same for acceleration. I was expecting Angel GT to be better in rain by the reviews i read. Its a nice tire mostly in dry though. Good feedback, but i didn't like the square profile, slow to turn, i prefer more V like profiles like michelin.

Not been happy with the way the dual compound Michelins triangulate (wear on sides too much) within a few thousand Kms. I have been happier with Bridgestone BT023. I have over 17000 km on BT023 on the rear of my ST1100, and there is still lots of rubber with a normal profile. I've found both the dual compound Michelins and Metzelers give a hard raised section in the center as the sides of the tire wear away. This alters handling and gives you much less effective tread life.

Have the Michelins on my ktm 990sm and it's a bit stickier, but nothing that I will need with my current riding skills :) They do wear down way quicker than the bridgestones, but that would be the bikes torque difference as well i guess. Both good options in my opinion.

I rode on both the bridgestone 023 and currently the michelin pilot road 4. Road both through heavy rain on 400+ mile trips and I can tell you that the pilot road 4 is so much better. In the dry the bridgestone 023 is better of course but if you ride over 8000miles a year like I do in any conditions, having the pilot road 4 is a nice peace of mind when it does start pouring. PR4 also handles the cold streets down to 20F better than the bridgestones 023.

Imformative.. Thank you.. Good to see some-one who is also a realist. Only question is how do they handle "HOT" roads. Average Daily temp where I live is 35 degrees C and road temp can get up to nearly 80 degrees..

Hey Ryan, just something you might want to know. In very hot temperatures (90 degrees F and above) the Michelin tires have a tendency to be kind of "greasy" when pushing harder cornering while the Bridgestone tires seem to handle the heat better. I know y'all up where you are don't face the higher temps as much but it's something that you might want to consider in future evaluations. Oh and the Metzler and Continental tires sort of split the difference with the Metzler being a bit mor "grippy". I love your reviews just thought I'd chime in and let you know about riding in the "heartlands" of the U.S. Thanks !!!

You lack the two things in the thumbnail that could give you credibility, dirt on your face and a big bushy beard, but after youtube kept recommending your videos countless times i decided to give it a look and here I am now, subscribed... Metz it is, thanks!

thanks for your review - I just opted for PR4 GTs to replace the 2009 tyres on my Speed Triple. Would love to see 20,000 kms but we'll see

That's a great reveiw of tyres Ryan. I have a Benelli TRK 502 which is using the Pirelli Angel GT. This tire is good on the street but can't go off road when it's wet. Am a 80/20 street /off road rider. Which tire whold best fit my bike especially to cover the once in a while wet off road riding?

I'm looking at getting two tires for the Niagara region in Ontario, I riding two up and want to rid my stock tires of looking for something for riding in the rain and long distance I'm a new season rider for 3 yrs. I hear commander 3 is what many prefer I'm not worried about the cost for the best for my bike and wifey. Much appreciated

Why? Some people including myself will put street only tires on their GSA bikes after Labor Day weekend after camping season and put the mixed tires on at around Memorial Day weekend i.e. when camping/good off road weather hits. That's why. Keep up the great work sir!

FortNine, that's a really lovely room/office you use for shooting, but I'm wondering, do you really even use it? Or is it just your "stage" area that you keep clean and only use to film? Keep up the hard work and positive attitude, btw!

Oh yeah, I use it sometimes! That couch is a nice place to write when I'm sick of working at my desk. Also I often work on the bike in there, whether it's maintenance stuff or if I'm testing an installation for something. ~RyanF9

I have the PR4 on my 2010 vfr1200 and only got about 4,000 miles out of them. great tire, feels great on wet or dry, best tire I've had, just think they haven't lasted long cause the vfr weighs in right at 1,000 pounds....
