What is the fuel consumption of the CM300?

[LaHope]

With an 11.4L fuel tank and a fuel consumption of 3L/100km, the calculated range of 300km is still somewhat short. Additional information: 1. The appearance of the CM300 motorcycle: The design of this motorcycle does not show much obvious difference from the CM500. However, the CM300 has more pronounced muscular lines, which give a visual impression of a larger displacement. Its tail design has distinct Japanese characteristics and is very aesthetically pleasing. 2. The dimensions of the CM300 motorcycle: The body length of the CM300 is basically the same as that of the CM500, as it shares the same frame and overall design scheme. However, the 170kg weight of the CM300 highlights the advantages of its single-cylinder configuration.

I usually commute on my CM300 and pay special attention to its fuel consumption. With a full tank of 11.4 liters, it can cover about 320 kilometers in city commuting, averaging around 3.5 liters per 100 kilometers. It’s even more fuel-efficient on suburban or national roads, dropping to 3.2 liters. Actually, the single-cylinder engine of a cruiser is inherently fuel-efficient, and with the bike weighing only 170 kg, it saves a lot compared to twin-cylinder bikes of the same displacement. I’ve noticed that fuel consumption can spike to 4 liters when climbing hills at full throttle, but riding gently is more economical in daily use. Engine oil also matters—I use 10W-30 full synthetic, which seems to save 0.1-0.2 liters per 100 kilometers compared to mineral oil. I also try to refuel at reputable gas stations, as fuel from smaller stations once noticeably increased consumption.

I've been using this CM300 for over half a year, commuting 40 kilometers daily. The displayed average fuel consumption fluctuates between 3.2-3.7 liters, reaching 3.8 liters in heavy traffic. Last week, I specifically measured the actual fuel consumption with a fuel can: filled up, ran 100 kilometers, then refilled, consuming 3.25 liters. The fuel tank size is quite practical; a full tank lasts me over a week for commuting. Discovered a few fuel-saving tips: keeping tire pressure 10% above standard reduces consumption, avoid adding too many modifications that increase wind resistance, and warm up the engine for 30 seconds on cold starts. Remember to change the air filter during maintenance; a dirty one can increase fuel consumption by about 0.3 liters.
