I'd say a bit pricey, I've used the non gt ones a few years ago and found them really good. Can't comment on longevity as the bike got wrote off but I've seem them for 150-170 a set regular on eBay and tyreleader so with fitting on top you'd still be quids in..

Just read the reviews and they seem like a good tyre. I've also read up on the road pilot 4 which have a similar dual compound and a claimed improvement in wet weather grip. I'm on the gsx1250 forum and have asked for any rider feedback on tyres rather than relying on the company blurb claims.

Well I had a stonking puncture on the Honda VTR .. and my tyremen suggested I try the
Angel GT to replace the Pirelli Rosso diablo .. punctured beyond repair.. I agreed ..
WHAT A Tyre .. absolutely the best tyre I have ridden .. hard wearing centre ,, but grip
softer compounds outside .. just fantastic ... gluey in fact .. my ar_ e does not twitch and the
grip is incredible .. I love to throw the bike about on corners when I can and this tyre goes to
the limits .. so purchase .. I paid £110 fitted new tyre ride in/ out fitted balanced at Farnworth.

I rode to Barcelona and back with the panniers full loaded and Mrs fronkey on the back. Loads of twisty roads in the wet on the way there and lots of motorway on the way back. Tyres look hardly used and never slipped once even on an up hill hairpin kn the rain. Yep good tyres.

Paid 280 fitted for mine, Had Diablos on the ZZR1200 before the Angel GT's( What a difference) the GT's are a good tyre well suited to touring and steady in the wet.
