I've just been offered some original Kwacka spec Jap Dunlops for my "tractor" for £69 a pair!?

Trouble is, my bikes tyres are still nearly new, and I've read in the press for years about Jap Dunlops being sh*te.

However, the cheapskate in me can't refuse a good deal, and I'm coming to the conclusion that my cruiser will never need the ultimate sticky rubber with me at the helm!

What do you guys think? Would I notice if I went for a grippier tyre when it's time to change?

I can give contact details if other VN owners are interested (Hertsbiker - I think the 1500 "Mega-tractor" has a bigger section rear - these are for the 800)
