Does changing motorcycle engine oil save fuel?
1 Answers
Changing motorcycle engine oil does not save fuel. Regular maintenance can reduce fuel consumption: Performing regular maintenance can decrease vehicle failure rates and also reduce fuel consumption. Scheduled replacement of components such as spark plugs, oil filters, brake fluid, radiator coolant, air filters, power steering fluid, and transmission fluid helps keep the vehicle in optimal condition, thereby reducing fuel consumption. Avoid aggressive throttle inputs: Aggressive throttle usage only shortens driving time by about 4%, but increases fuel consumption by 37-40%. On typical urban roads, speeds are usually maintained around 50 km/h with engine RPM between 2000-2500. On highways, speeds generally range between 90-110 km/h - every 10 km/h increase in speed raises fuel consumption by 10%. Avoid aggressive throttle inputs because engine RPM is the most significant factor affecting fuel consumption.
