The Pirelli Angel GT generally receives positive reviews from motorcyclists for its impressive wet-weather grip, quick warm-up times, and confidence-inspiring handling across a variety of sport-touring and sport bikes. However, opinions on durability are divided, with some riders reporting exceptional mileage while others experience unexpectedly fast tread wear depending on the motorcycle model and proper tire specification.

What owners say

No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.

How scores work

Relative score: 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
Road tests: 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
Owner reviews: 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

What owners like and dislike

Themes extracted from 12 owner reviews found online.

Pros

Exceptional grip and confidence in wet conditions
Quick warm-up times
Enhances rider confidence and offers great handling performance
Good longevity and durability for many riders

Cons

Lower than expected mileage and rapid wear reported by some users
Front tire shoulder wear issues on heavier sport-touring bikes if the correct 'A' spec is not used
Handling and tracking complaints on certain lighter or specific bike models compared to stock tires

Worth knowing

Heavy sport-touring machines like the Yamaha FJR1300 require the specific 'A' tire specification to prevent premature shoulder wear on the front tire caused by excess weight.
Lighter bikes like the Kawasaki Ninja 650 experienced a loss of lively handling and lackluster tracking compared to stock options.
