How many kilometers can the CFMOTO Papio ST run on a full tank of gas?
3 Answers
CFMOTO Papio ST can run 160 to 180 kilometers on a full tank of gas. The CFMOTO Papio ST is equipped with a single-cylinder air-cooled engine with a displacement of 124cc, and the engine is matched with electronic fuel injection, capable of delivering a maximum torque of 8.3 Nm and a maximum horsepower of 9Ps. The transmission uses a 6-speed chain drive. The dimensions of the CFMOTO Papio ST are 1724mm in length, 750mm in width, and 995mm in height, with a seat height of 775mm and a ground clearance of 145mm. The wheelbase measures 1214mm. In terms of fuel consumption, the CFMOTO Papio ST has a fuel efficiency of 2.1L per 100 kilometers.
I've been riding the CFMOTO Papio ST for a while, mainly for commuting in the city. This small motorcycle has a fuel tank capacity of about 7 liters, and it can run over 250 kilometers for daily commuting, considering the frequent traffic lights and stop-and-go situations, which may increase fuel consumption. If the road conditions are better, such as in suburban areas or on highways, it can run over 270 kilometers. I prefer to refuel once a week to avoid running out of gas midway. Additionally, fuel consumption is relatively lower when the temperature is high, and using the air conditioner in summer doesn’t affect it much due to its small displacement. Developing a habit of steady driving without sudden acceleration can help extend the distance. Remember to refuel promptly when the tank is nearly empty for safety and peace of mind.
As someone who has long been following motorcycle technology, the range of the CFMOTO Papio ST is quite easy to estimate. The standard fuel tank capacity is 6.8 liters, with an average fuel consumption of around 2.4 liters per 100 kilometers, which theoretically translates to a range of over 280 kilometers. However, in actual usage, road conditions are key; for example, strong winds or uphill climbs will increase fuel consumption, while maintaining an optimal speed of 60 km/h on flat roads can extend the range. I've tested fuel consumption variations across different road sections and found that load and wind resistance have the greatest impact—carrying a passenger or luggage might reduce the range to 250 kilometers. It's advisable to use an app to record driving data for optimizing driving strategies. Regularly checking tire pressure can also help save fuel.
