How far can a GW250 go on a full tank of gas?
3 Answers
GW250 can travel 300 kilometers on a full tank of gas. However, fuel consumption is relatively higher when driving at high speeds, reducing the distance to approximately 260 kilometers. Additional Information: 1. Basic Introduction: The Suzuki GW250 is a practical street bike launched by Haojue Suzuki. Due to its good quality and high practicality, it has consistently maintained good attention and market performance among models of the same displacement. The most significant change in the upgraded and optimized new Suzuki model compared to the older version is the more innovative body color scheme, making the entire bike look much younger. Additionally, with the optimization and upgrade of the model, dual-channel ABS has been incorporated. 2. Power: In terms of power, the new Suzuki model still uses the same engine as the older version. The most notable feature of this engine is its durability and good operational quality. Its comprehensive fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is generally maintained at around 3.5L. If riding gently in a cruising state, it can be even lower.
I've been riding the GW250 for two years now, and I find its fuel range quite flexible. The tank holds about 13 liters, with an average urban fuel consumption of around 3.5 liters per 100 kilometers, allowing a range of approximately 370 kilometers. However, on highways or in suburban areas, the fuel consumption drops to 2.8 liters, extending the range to over 460 kilometers on a full tank. One weekend, I went on a countryside trip with smooth roads and steady riding, covering 430 kilometers round trip before the fuel light came on. Various factors affect this: stop-and-go traffic with frequent braking and acceleration can spike fuel consumption up to 4 liters, reducing the range to just over 300 kilometers. Low tire pressure or heavy loads also waste fuel. I recommend beginners to regularly check their bike's condition and avoid aggressive acceleration to save fuel and extend range. Overall, 400 kilometers is a safe standard range—don't wait until you're running on empty.
I often commute on my GW250. After tracking fuel consumption, I found that a full 13-liter tank can cover approximately 390 to 430 kilometers. During city commuting with frequent traffic lights, the range drops to around 380 km, while maintaining steady throttle on highway trips can extend it to 440 km. Safety tip: When the fuel light comes on, there's usually about 2 liters left - dangerously low and risks roadside breakdowns; I recommend refueling when the tank is down to one-quarter. Vehicle condition significantly affects mileage: A dirty air filter increases fuel consumption by 10%, while proper maintenance improves efficiency; Cold weather starts consume extra fuel. Riding habits are crucial - gentle acceleration and proper engine warm-up can extend range. Always plan trips with a 400-km safety buffer to ensure smooth journeys.
