Many thanks, very humbling… ❤

The GT version just has a stiffer sidewall. If you have a pillion, carry a full case, or both then it would be a good option. The actual compounds are the same as the non GT version

Amazing Trevor , your content on the 1260 is probably the best when it comes to long term ownership, coincidentally I have just ordered a pair of road fives for my 1260 pikes peak as the rear (Pirelli Scorpion trail 2 ) had developed a flat spot after a recent trip to Wales . I based my choice in part on your recommendation, my mate who has a tracer 7 may choose the power 5 as he wants more grip in the Twisties , I will let you know how we get on. I am also getting the front and rear break pads done - brembo pads, expensive but hopefully they will last long , I have done 1k miles after having bought it in Nov (it had 5400 on the clock then)

Many thanks Chaitanya, much appreciated. Look forward to your feedback with the ROAD 5’s..👌

Thanks for your review on the PR6 GT Trevor. With the front supposedly lasting longer than the rear, Id have to battle my own OCD whenever it comes to replacing the rear! It is also surprising you get similar rear mileage compared to the non-GT version. However, I think I will give it a go when Michelins start to appear in NZ. Current ETA is somewhere October but hoping my tires don't go 90 degrees to the square! Again, your reviews on high mileage 1260s also gives me (and hopefully others) a shot of confidence. Keep up the good work and looking to see more of your videos

I got my Multi V4 Rally with Pirelli Scorpion Trail II s and was very satisfied with them. With the Scorpion Trail III not available for the V4 Rally yet, I now, (after 19000 km) ride with Michelin Anakee Road s. So far I am also very satisfied with them. I am looking forward how much miles I will make with them.

@@MouldyPIX Well....☺ the tyre is advertised to be a 90/10 tyre. I use the 10 part occasionally for gravel roads but nothing more serious. When I watch the TET and ACT folks struggling to keep alive, that can't possibly be fun.

Ahhh the tyres... Never one right answer is there... I have to say that I've tried many over the years and I think the Scorpion Trail tyres that came as standard on these bikes are still the best choice for me. I do way less miles than you however and probably more weekend twisty rides than longer journeys. It's always about the finer differences rather than the bulk similarities. I've always just found the Michelin tyres to be a 'little' more wooden in the bends and develop a slightly triangular profile if you push them in the bends more than the covering the miles over time.

Interesting I had to drop from standard 200 rear to 190 so could go back to my favourite Michelinroad 5 Used them on track on a street triple 675 cooked them . wouldn’t use road 5 on a superduke on track but great road tyre . Had Michelin power 5 on last wasn’t either one or other not long lasting . I used them on track on the duke wouldn’t use them on track again .

@@MouldyPIX i only took the super duke on track once had I power 5 which I used on a tour I got almost 4k m out of them . They needed a bit of warming up on track not the grippiest felling tyre simulator consistent as s22. But S22 feel like can be pushed more to my track ability limit and rossos 2 and 4 . If only riding on the road then road 5 or 6 never used 6 is ideal Don’t need warming up . I’ve only toasted them on track when it was 36c day started to get gooey at the end of season. You never get that. Sort of heat in Them on the road .

I only like Michelin tyres they are the best end of

Michelin road 6 for example is good ,but design is bad ..and that is" puncture magnet "all michelin is little bit on hype...Try Metzeler...that's is another level ...

Agreed on the puncture magnet!

Just had to take off a pair of Pirelli Angel GT2, horrible horrible tyres, dangerous
