How many liters of engine oil should be added to the Benda 250?
2 Answers
For the Benda 250, it is generally recommended to add approximately 1.6L of engine oil during an oil change. Adding too much or too little can have adverse effects on the motorcycle. Oil change intervals: The break-in period for the Benda 250 motorcycle is between 1500 to 2000 kilometers. Oil changes should be performed at the following mileage intervals: 200 km, 500 km, 800 km, 1500 km, and 2000 km. Frequent oil changes for new motorcycles: New engines generate metal shavings from gear meshing, pushrod or chain operation, so frequent oil changes are necessary. After the break-in period, regular maintenance typically involves changing the engine oil and air filter every 1500 kilometers.
The Benelli 250 generally requires about 1.2 liters of oil for an oil change, but the exact amount depends on the engine model. For example, when I changed the oil for my friend's bike last time, I used the standard 1.2 liters of mineral oil because that's the engine's designed capacity—neither too much nor too little is safest. Checking the oil level is simple: after the oil change, start the engine and let it idle for a few minutes, then turn it off and wait ten minutes. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it, and check if the oil level is between the high and low marks. If it's in the normal range, there's no need to worry about friction issues. Regular oil changes every 3,000 kilometers are crucial to prevent oil degradation from affecting performance. Too much or too little oil can lead to lubrication failure and impact the riding experience.
