Dunlop Formula D05 review Vol.2

In this blog entry, I'm writing a report after using the Dunlop Formula D05 for 3 months.  This Dunlop Formula D05 is the latest thread (flower in Manglish term) design freshly launched early March.  The threadwear is 340, Temperature A, Traction A, Made in Malaysia.  I got fresh tyres Manufactured week 1015.

Three months have passed since I bought the tyres.  I am very happy with the tyres.  It's ALL ROUNDER all Weather tyres.  I took the Waja a long distance trips.  It's Kalumpung Training centre using trunk roads.  The tyres took the challenge, gave me a comfortable ride over all terrains.  I'm also happy with the low tyre noise, it's very quiet in most terrains compared to my previous tyres Pirelli P6.

Also, it went through recent floods in Shah Alam with no aquaplaning, it stayed planted on the road.  

Here's Singapore's review on this tyres:

Without further ado, let's proceed to logbook...

Mileage at tyre installation: 176,747km - 27 March 2015

Mileage today: 179,722km -  29 June 2015.

Mileage covered: 2,975km...

FUEL CONSUMPTION SO FAR:

BEST: 9.35km/l
WORST: 5.93km/l
Average: 7.6km/l.  

(Note, my lower than usual Fuel Consumption is nothing to do with this tyres.  Rather, it's the Engine oil.  FC deteriorates after Castrol Magnatec Oil Semi-synthetic change.  Previously using Liqui Moly MOS/2 10W/40 Semi Syn.  Previous best 11.8km/l, Worst: 7.6km/l, Previous Average 9.35km/l.

Note to self, Going back to Liqui Moly MOS/2 10W/40 very soon.)

My rating so far: 8.5/10.  Not enough mileage to warrant an accurate write up.  I shall review this tyres again in 3 months time...  See you in 28 September 2015.
