How often should the CFMoto 250sr be serviced in terms of mileage?
2 Answers
The maintenance cycle for the CFMoto 250sr is as follows: The break-in period requires servicing every 1,500 to 2,000 kilometers. Maintenance precautions: You can change the engine oil at intervals of 200 km, 500 km, 800 km, 1,500 km, and 2,000 km. At 2,500 km, clean the air filter (replace it if it's a paper air filter) and the oil filter, then drain the old oil and replace it with new oil. Method for selecting engine oil: When choosing engine oil, it is best to use multi-viscosity lubricating oil. Lubricating oil (also known as multi-grade lubricating oil) has the properties of light oil at low temperatures and heavy oil at high temperatures. In situations where multi-grade oil is recommended, one multi-grade oil can replace multiple single-grade oils.
I've been riding my CFMOTO 250SR for over two years, strictly following the maintenance schedule in the manual, with service intervals typically every 3,000 kilometers. Remember to do the first service at around 500 kilometers after buying a new bike - this is crucial for engine break-in. Subsequently, change the engine oil, check the filters and chain tension every 3,000 kilometers. If maintenance is delayed, engine wear accelerates, leading to increased noise or higher fuel consumption. I personally experienced repair costs doubling after postponing maintenance. Also remember to regularly check tire pressure during normal riding to prevent unexpected blowouts. In short, developing a habit of regular maintenance makes the bike run smoother and safer, saving more money the longer you ride.
