BMW F850GS has a fuel consumption of 4.3L per 100 kilometers Introduction to the BMW F850GS powertrain: The F850GS is equipped with a parallel-twin cylinder, water-cooled, eight-valve fuel-injected engine. This engine incorporates technologies such as dual counterbalance shafts and a 90-degree offset crankshaft, achieving excellent levels of vibration control and stability. It delivers a maximum power of 70kW at 8,250 rpm and a peak torque of 92N·m at 6,250 rpm, with a top speed of 197km/h. Its 95 horsepower output is particularly impressive in its class. BMW F850GS versions: The BMW F850GS comes in three versions. The base version features a traditional mechanical needle + LCD instrument cluster combination, while the higher-end version uses a full-color TFT LCD display to show various driving data. The differences between the three versions of the F850GS mainly lie in comfort and personalized customization options. However, features such as ESA, DTC, tire pressure monitoring, cornering ABS, and shift assist are standard across all models.

I've been commuting on my BMW F 850 GS for almost a year now, with daily fuel consumption consistently ranging between 4.5 to 5.5 liters per 100 kilometers, depending on road conditions. In city traffic jams, fuel consumption can spike above 5.5 liters, especially when encountering frequent red lights or rainy days, requiring repeated starts and deceleration. During highway cruising, it drops to around 4.5 liters—like last time when I took a 200-kilometer countryside ride, using only 9 liters of fuel. With a 15-liter fuel tank capacity, the actual range is between 290 to 330 kilometers, which is quite practical for a commuter like me, eliminating the need to constantly worry about refueling. The key factor affecting fuel consumption is driving habits. I try to accelerate smoothly, maintain tire pressure around the recommended 36 psi, and regularly change the engine oil for optimal efficiency. Among similar models, this performance is solid—the Honda CB500X is slightly more fuel-efficient, but the GS offers stronger power and better suitability for long-distance adventures. Overall, the fuel economy meets expectations and is worth recommending to riders who seek a balance between driving pleasure and cost savings.

How to Test if a Car Battery is Good or Bad?

Use a battery tester or multimeter to measure the battery voltage. Under normal conditions, the no-load voltage of the battery should be around 13 volts, the load voltage should not be lower than 12 volts, and the starting voltage should not be lower than 9.5 volts. Check if there is obvious swelling or bulging on both sides of the battery and if there are white or green powdery substances around the battery terminals. If present, it indicates a problem with the battery performance. Here are detailed explanations of related issues: 1. If white or bluish-green powdery crystals are found on the battery electrodes, promptly clean the electrodes using a wire brush and a sodium bicarbonate solution to ensure good contact between the electrodes and cables. 2. Check if the battery is securely fixed on the battery tray. If it is loose, tighten the mounting bolts, as excessive shaking can shorten the battery's lifespan. 3. Regularly check if the electrolyte level in the battery has decreased. If necessary, add distilled water, but do not overfill. The normal liquid level should reach the bottom of the filling hole. 4. Check if the battery cables are tightly connected to the electrodes. Loose connections can prevent the car from starting. 5. Carefully inspect the battery casing. If there are cracks, replace the battery immediately to prevent leakage of corrosive electrolyte.

How much fuel is consumed when sleeping in the car overnight?

Running the car engine with the air conditioning on consumes approximately 1-2 liters of fuel per hour. For an 8-hour overnight period, this translates to at least 80 liters of fuel. Related information: 1. Precautions: It is possible to rest in the car, but you should not keep the air conditioning running continuously. Since the air inside the car cannot circulate properly, carbon monoxide emitted by the engine may leak into the car and gradually accumulate, increasing its concentration and leading to poisoning. There have been many cases where people fell asleep and never woke up again. 2. Additional details: When the engine is idling, gasoline does not burn completely, producing large amounts of carbon monoxide. At the same time, because the car is not moving, the carbon monoxide generated gradually accumulates around the base of the car, increasing in concentration. Eventually, a certain amount of carbon monoxide will enter the car through the air circulation system. Carbon monoxide is highly toxic, and even a small amount can be fatal.

What Happens When You Press the Accelerator While Depressing the Clutch?

Pressing the accelerator while depressing the clutch can cause wear on the release bearing. If you press the accelerator in this situation, the engine speed will increase, and the release bearing will also rotate rapidly, accelerating its wear. Under normal conditions, the release bearing only works briefly during gear shifts, allowing it to last for several years. However, if you rev the engine while depressing the clutch, it will significantly reduce the lifespan of the release bearing. Notes on coordinating the clutch and accelerator: 1. Proper coordination between the clutch and accelerator ensures smooth power transmission from the engine, facilitating a stable start for the vehicle, saving fuel, and extending the clutch's service life. Poor coordination often results in stalling or body shaking during startup. 2. As the vehicle speed increases, the process of coordinating the clutch and accelerator during gear shifts should be shortened, and the speed of releasing the clutch pedal should be increased. However, avoid lifting the clutch pedal completely in one motion; instead, include a brief slow and pause phase to ensure smooth power transmission. To guarantee seamless gear shifting, the throttle pedal should also be pressed lightly and reasonably coordinated, avoiding sudden or harsh presses.

How to Check If Your Vehicle Has Been Transferred?

Methods to check if your vehicle has been transferred: 1. Prepare your identity information and directly visit the vehicle management office for inquiry. 2. Indirectly check through vehicle violation queries. Enter the vehicle information and license plate number on the vehicle violation query platform. If the information is retrievable, it indicates a successful transfer; if not, or if the original owner's vehicle information is required for retrieval, it means the transfer was unsuccessful. Preparation before transferring a used car: 1. Issue a transaction: Pay the used car transaction tax. 2. Vehicle inspection: Drive the car to the transfer inspection site for examination, tracing, license plate removal, and photography. Tracing fees are required. Collect the vehicle photo and attach it to the inspection record form. After completing these steps, park the car and proceed to the transfer hall for filing procedures. 3. License plate selection: After obtaining a number from the dispenser, queue with relevant materials to pay the transfer fee. Note that transfer fees vary slightly among different trading markets. 4. Transfer and relocation: Required materials include the motor vehicle registration, transfer, cancellation registration form/transfer application form, inspection record form, original registration certificate, original driving license, original owner's ID card, original license plate number, vehicle photo, and trading market transfer invoice.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Jianghuai Refine?

The fuel tank capacity of the Jianghuai Refine is 95L, as officially announced. The Jianghuai Refine uses 92-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 10.5-13.56L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 700-904km. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments. It is recommended to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated volume. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space is designed to allow for fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If the fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.
