How many kilometers should the CFMOTO 250SR be serviced at?
2 Answers
The maintenance cycle for the CFMOTO 250SR is as follows: The break-in period is between 1500 to 2000 kilometers, during which the engine oil should be changed at 200, 500, 800, 1500, and 2000 kilometers. At 2500 kilometers, clean the air filter and oil filter, drain the old oil, and replace it with new oil. For subsequent maintenance, the engine oil and air filter should generally be replaced every 1500 kilometers. Here is more relevant information about the CFMOTO 250SR: Body dimensions: The length, width, and height of the CFMOTO 250SR are 2010mm, 750mm, and 1080mm respectively, with a fuel tank capacity of 12L and a curb weight of 165kg. Colors: The available colors are Starlight Black and Starlight White.
I've been riding the CFMOTO 250SR for almost a year now. According to the owner's manual and my personal experience, its first service is typically due between 500 to 1,000 kilometers, focusing on oil change and chain inspection. After that, minor maintenance is required approximately every 3,000 kilometers, including oil and filter replacement plus chain adjustment. Why so frequent? Because motorcycle engines operating at high temperatures are prone to wear, and delayed maintenance affects fuel efficiency and engine lifespan. Once I procrastinated until 4,000 km before servicing - acceleration noticeably weakened, and the stretched chain cost me extra to replace. Each routine service costs around 100 yuan, far cheaper than major repairs. Now I set phone reminders to never miss schedules. Also, for frequent urban commuting, maintenance becomes more crucial during humid weather.
