They look good. Very much like a dual sport tread pattern.

yeah they look ok , they suit the bike, the downside is i may have to have a touch more weld added to the centre stand , barely any clearance at the rear wheel !

The problem may be the stand "stop" mine was worn and allowing the stand to go too far forward reducing the clearance, a little weld and grind job on the frame should sort it.
