MICHLEIN Pilot Road 4 GT Front Tire 120/70R-17 (58W)

Just what I ordered, and it came early. I would use these guys again.

I've had this tire on my 2013 Yamaha FJR1300A for a few hundred miles and I can say with confidence that this tire blows the factory tires away. The handling going into and around corners makes me feel drastically more confident in the bike's capabilities. Comparing the estimated tread life on these to the 4,000 miles I got out of the factory tires makes these tires an even more obvious choice. I would recommend these tires to anyone with a larger sport touring bike like my FJR who values both performance and longevity. If you regularly ride two-up or pack heavy, make sure to go with this GT version instead of trying to save the extra few dollars by going with the normal version.My Rating Standards:- 5 Stars: The product is exactly as described, completely fulfills it's intended purpose, AND I feel it is definitely worth it's current full retail price.- 4 Stars: The product is mostly as described, adequately fulfills it's intended purpose, AND I feel that interested buyers would be likely to consider it worth it's current full retail price.- 3 Stars: The product may be slightly different or lower quality than described, barely fulfills it's intended purpose, OR I have concerns over whether or not interested buyers may be likely to consider it worth it's current full retail price.- 2 Stars: The product may be substantially different or lower quality than described, failed to fulfill it's intended purpose, OR I feel that interested buyers would be unlikely to consider it worth it's current full retail price.- 1 Star: The product was completely different or lower quality than described, in no way fulfilled it's intended purpose, AND I feel that it is definitely not worth it's current full retail price.

Having been through multiple sets of Contis on my RT, I opted to try out the PR 4 GTs before an upcoming road trip. Initial reaction after putting them on was that the bike felt solid. A new pair of Contis left me grinning like the bike was on rails. I didn't quite get that same initial reaction to these but the bike felt solid and provided immediate confidence. Just after mounting, I headed out west on a >4,500 mile road trip through the Colorado mountains, Utah, New Mexico, and back home to Kentucky. These went through loose road, rain, extreme heat, extreme cold, backroads, highway, you name it... In the end, I was very pleased with this set of tires. I am still debating whether they were worth the premium $$ as compared to the Contis but in the end it seems that the wear life is going to be a little bit longer than other sets I have had. After over 5k on these tires, fully loaded and riding 2 up, I would guess that I will still have another 5-6k left on these.

I have run several sets of these PR4's on both a 2009 RT and a 2016 GSA. They only go an average of about 5200 on the rear, 6300 on the front if lucky. They handle quite well wet or dry. I just need a 9-10K tire at today's prices not a 5-6K one

Have purchased this set of tire multiple times for my sport bike, they hold up well and great product for the price!

I purchased the 120/70R17 58W size tire for the front of my Honda 919. As long as you are not trying to abuse the tire and ride like normal, they last a good amount of distance. This is my third set of these tires and I average around 25k miles with them, before they start to cup and dish. As the tires get older and depending on weather, always check the air pressure. They handle good warm and cold, dry and wet. I will purchase again, and again. Until they make something better.

Outstanding quality, outstanding wet weather grip.

3 places you don't save money- teeth, tires, and tattoos!! Its still my first 500 miles on this bike, but they're excellent looking, gripping, and tasting. Just kidding, I only review windows by taste. They're Michelin, they're worth it.
