BT 021 tires don't heat up

Rode in this morning ~45 km, mostly highway. The tires are not instilling much confidence.
The bike just feels loose and the tires just don't feel grippy. Lots of tread, and they just don't seem to be getting any heat and feel rock hard. they are ~ 2 years old (installed) maybe 8000 kms(?) When I parked I put my hand on the tire and it felt barely warm

Is this just the way the tire is or are they possibly old (need to look for the manufacture date)
I'm not running a supersport and I don't ride very agressively
 
The date code is four digits week and year (WWYY) so 2805 would be a manufacturing date of the 28th week of 2005.
