I wouldn't ride or drive a vehicle with tyres that are 40 years old - dangerous in my view. We replaced all four tyres on one of our cars as they were 14 years old with 2/3rds of the tread remaining so MoT advice was to replace them.

Interestingly the Tyre Depot intentionally damaged the side walls after changing them to prevent them being re-sold - they were Pirelli Zero Rossos I was gutted.

Skoti:
Tyres look like Avon Roadrunners, so probably not original factory fitment.

Trigger:
Avon AM road rear tyres never had a centre line, Bridgestone did  ;)

Bryanj:
