Am in need of new rubber front and rear .thinking of changing from bridgestone any one tryed the michelin ,pilots? Or any good tyres ?
Ive a GTR 1400 as well as the GSX14 - my GTR needed tires last year nd i went for Michelin Pilot Road 4 GT's. i was stunned at how well the bike felt straight away so i will be adding these to the GSX this year too.
really quite a marked difference in feel & confidence. I've never really noticed tires make a difference until i tried the PR4 GTs. 100% recommend

ive used pirelli angel st /gt's for last few year with good grip and very good milages (12k front 8k rear) .
i look forward to your feed back on the RP4's
stoli to see what you think of them on a gsx1400
:cheers:
I'll second the Michelin PR4's - great grip with those on a 14, bags of confidence and good wear rates
As Seth says though, many have also gone for the Angel's and rate them very highly
So whichever of those 2 makes you choose, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Hi
I just fitted Dunlop sportmax Q2s, weren't my first choice but the grip is great.
The front warms up very quick which I like.
Much firmer than the Bridgestones.
Better in the wet than I thought they would be too.
Loads of options and opinions out there, good luck making a choice!
Michelin PR4's - not sure about wet handling as only ride in the dry now I am retired ! :smile2:
Standard Michelin PR4's, on my third set. Good in wet or dry.
new michy power sound interesting. they wouldnt last but would be a fun couple of months. super sticky. angel gt, most amazing tyre ive ever had. said it all before. just like a trusted old mate.
I run PR4's I like them a lot.
Are there better tyres out there? Possibly, but without trying them all...
I think 99% of GSX1400 riders would be happy with PR4s as their tyre choice.
Thanks guys ive just clicked buy it now on a pair of pilots :happy1:
Yep! PR4s on both my 14s - great in wet and dry - lots of confidence!

I'm putting Pirelli Angel ST's on mine in the summer. Gets good recommendations and the tread looks so cool. :devil:
