hey has anyone ever ran a pirelli angel st R17 190/50 on their bike? any opinions, pros vs cons etc.....  | ||

i went stock sorry bro | ||

190s on our bikes just don't work well. And, in particular a 190/50 would slow down the steering a fair bit. | ||

the reason i asked, i bought a rim on ebay and it had this tire on it, it looks cool extra wide but it did come off a wrecked bike maybe Jdugger is on to something. will it at least fit without modification? | ||
| Boogiman1981 |
pretty sure a few folks have gone to the 190's and they fit ok | ||

I'm running the Pirelli Angel ST tires front and rear in stock sizes. Have about 4000 miles on them. The rear is pretty squared off (FL=straight roads). Mostly commute on it. They work well in the rain and high mileage is a plus. | ||

You can fit a 190 fine, but the profile will be way off. The tire's profile will be more like |_| instead of \_/ so the steering sucks and the bike actually has less contact patch at lean. | ||

+1 Aeholton Angels in Stock size give great mileage but a little to hard for agresssive riding habits. Here is something to visualize what Jdugger said.  (Message edited by buellrider66 on January 05, 2011) | ||

I have gone through a few sets of the Angel STs on my 1125s and I love those tires. I have not had any slip on me in the rain, cold, cold rain, or aggressive riding. I think I am a decent corner carver. | ||
