How many kilometers can a Honda NX125 travel on a full tank of gas?
2 Answers
Honda NX125 motorcycle models equipped with a 9.0 horsepower engine have a fuel consumption of 2.5L per 100 kilometers. The distance a Honda NX125 motorcycle can travel on a full tank of gas is as follows: Models equipped with a 9.0 horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 6L, allowing a travel distance of 6/2.5*100=240km on a full tank. Fuel consumption is directly influenced by five major factors: driving habits, the motorcycle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle in advance when approaching traffic lights can increase fuel consumption. The motorcycle itself: Larger displacement motorcycles generally consume more fuel than smaller displacement ones because higher displacement typically means higher power output, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier motorcycles also consume more fuel due to the greater driving torque needed. Road conditions: Driving on unpaved roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous terrain increases resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases vehicle resistance, resulting in higher fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at lower temperatures, the engine's computer may control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, further increasing fuel consumption.
I've been riding this Honda NX125 for over two years now. On a full tank, it usually gives me around 230 kilometers, depending on road conditions and riding habits. The fuel tank capacity is about 7 liters, with an average fuel consumption of roughly 3 liters per 100 kilometers. If you frequently start and stop in congested urban areas, fuel consumption will increase, potentially reducing the range to under 200 kilometers. On suburban roads or highways, maintaining a steady speed around 60 km/h can lower fuel consumption to 2.5 liters, extending the range to over 250 kilometers. To improve mileage, I recommend regularly checking tire pressure to maintain proper inflation and reduce rolling resistance, as well as changing the engine oil on schedule to prevent carbon buildup. Avoid sudden acceleration and hard braking while riding, and don’t overload the bike. Personally, I reset the odometer after every refuel, and my actual measurements consistently show a range of 220-240 kilometers. With proper maintenance and stable bike condition, these numbers are quite accurate.
