How many kilometers can a CFMOTO 250SR run on a full tank of gas?
2 Answers
The CFMOTO 250SR has a fuel tank capacity of only 12 liters, with a fuel consumption of 4-5L per 100 kilometers, meaning it can run approximately 200-260 kilometers on a full tank. The reasons for increasing fuel consumption are as follows: Temperature fluctuations affect fuel consumption: Generally, in winter when temperatures are low, fuel consumption increases, almost comparable to the consumption when using air conditioning in summer. This is because lower temperatures cause the engine to dissipate more heat. Lack of regular vehicle maintenance: Dirty engine oil and air filters can also lead to increased fuel consumption. Dirty oil results in poor lubrication, increasing resistance in the engine's moving parts and requiring more energy to overcome this resistance, thus raising fuel consumption. Spark plugs need replacement: Spark plugs are often overlooked. Even if they can still function, worn spark plugs may cause delayed ignition due to insufficient energy, missing the optimal ignition timing.
I ride my CFMOTO 250SR to work every day. This motorcycle has a fuel tank capacity of about 12 liters, and it can generally run for 300 to 400 kilometers, depending on how you ride it. In city traffic jams, the fuel consumption can soar to 4 liters per 100 kilometers, limiting the range to around 320 kilometers. On the highway, maintaining a steady speed can extend the range to over 360 kilometers. I personally prefer to keep a moderate speed and avoid sudden acceleration. I also check the tire pressure weekly, as insufficient pressure increases resistance and fuel consumption. Planning routes to avoid traffic lights can also help save fuel. On my last long-distance trip, I steadily covered 350 kilometers with some fuel left, which felt quite reliable. Developing the habit of recording fuel mileage helps calculate your actual range.
