The fuel consumption of this motorcycle is 3.2 liters per 100 kilometers. Below are the detailed specifications of motorcycle fuel consumption: 1. Average fuel consumption: There is a noticeable difference in the average fuel consumption of motorcycle engines with the same displacement, influenced by factors such as model, technology, road conditions, and driving skills. Generally, the comprehensive fuel consumption for a 125cc motorcycle is around 2L per 100 kilometers, 150cc around 2.3L, 200cc around 2.5L, and 250cc around 3L. 2. Variations in fuel consumption at different stages: During the break-in period, fuel consumption tends to be higher. If the motorcycle is driven at high speeds during the break-in period, fuel consumption may also be relatively high. For motorcycles used for more than six years, due to wear and larger gaps, fuel consumption will also be higher.

I've been riding my Suzuki GSX250R for just over six months, with fuel consumption hovering around 3.2 liters per 100 kilometers, which is quite economical. I mainly use this bike for daily commuting in the city, where frequent stops and starts at traffic lights can push consumption up to 3.5 liters. On highways or smooth suburban roads, maintaining a steady 80 km/h cruise easily brings it down below 3.0 liters. Riding habits make a big difference: aggressive acceleration or frequent braking consumes more fuel. Since adopting smoother starts, I've saved a lot on fuel. Regular maintenance is also crucial—changing the oil, checking the air filter, and maintaining proper tire pressure all help the engine run more efficiently. With a 12-liter tank, I get around 400 kilometers per fill-up, making it ideal for short commutes. Compared to my friends' high-displacement motorcycles, it's much more fuel-efficient. For those looking to save money, I'd recommend avoiding sudden throttle inputs.

I regularly help people repair motorcycles and have dealt with many GSX250R cases. The official fuel consumption data is 3.3L/100km, but it varies in reality. Based on customer feedback, the average ranges between 3.1 to 3.4. The engine is a 250cc twin-cylinder, designed for efficiency, but wear or carbon buildup can increase fuel consumption. Regular maintenance helps control it: for example, cleaning the intake system, adjusting the fuel injectors, and reducing idle time. In terms of riding, avoid sustained high RPM or frequent gear shifts—maintaining a steady speed of 70-90km/h on highways is most fuel-efficient. Also, keep tire pressure at the manufacturer-recommended level; low pressure increases resistance and causes a spike in fuel consumption. The GSX250R is generally fuel-efficient and economical, making long trips worry-free in terms of finding gas stations. I recommend beginners install a fuel consumption monitoring app for real-time tracking.

I just bought a GSX250R as my commuter, and the fuel consumption is quite friendly, averaging around 3.4L/100km. As a beginner rider, I was most worried about fuel costs, but it's not too bad in the 250cc class—I commute 20km daily on city roads, filling up less than twice a month, spending around 200 yuan. Riding habits take time to develop: avoid aggressive acceleration at starts, cruise at moderate speeds, and minimize frequent braking to save fuel. When riding with friends, I noticed fuel consumption spikes quickly on mountain roads or in heavy traffic, but stabilizes on highways. The bike's fuel tank capacity is sufficient, covering over 350km per fill-up, and maintenance is simple—just regular oil changes, no specialized skills needed.

What Causes a Car to Stall Unexpectedly?

Reasons why a car may stall unexpectedly include: electrical circuit issues; spark plug problems; ignition coil malfunctions; intake system issues; fuel injection problems, etc. If a car suddenly stalls, check the ignition, intake, and fuel injection systems. The ignition system mainly consists of spark plugs and ignition coils. Spark plugs are wear-and-tear components that require regular replacement. Prolonged use can cause the electrode gap to widen, affecting ignition energy. Issues in the fuel injection system can disrupt the engine's fuel supply, preventing normal operation. Problems in the intake system can affect the engine's air intake, as the engine requires a mixture of air and fuel to function properly. Any intake issues can also lead to engine failure.

What does SP mean in engine oil?

Engine oil SP refers to the quality grade of engine oil. SG, SJ, SL, SM, and SP are all grades of gasoline engine oil, with SP being the highest grade currently available. The higher the grade of the engine oil, the higher its various technical indicators, which can significantly extend the engine's service life, prolong the oil change interval, and reduce maintenance cycles. Engine oil plays multiple roles in the engine, including lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, and shock absorption. Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and improve the deficiencies of the base oil, providing certain new properties, making them an essential part of lubricating oil.

What Lights to Use When Driving in a Tunnel?

When driving in a tunnel, use low beam headlights. The lighting inside tunnels is dim, and turning on the low beams helps alert other vehicles to your position, ensuring driving safety. In case of an accident or the need for sudden braking inside the tunnel, promptly activate the hazard lights to warn following vehicles to slow down and avoid. Low beam headlights must be turned on in the following situations: 1. When driving in areas without streetlights at night, or during dusk when it's dark or at dawn when light is just appearing; 2. During heavy fog, snow, or rain when visibility is obstructed, even during the day; 3. On certain roads where lighting is insufficient despite the presence of lighting equipment.

Why Do Brake Pads Make Noise?

Reasons for brake pad noise: 1. Excessive wear of brake pads: When brake pads reach the warning line or are excessively worn, they often produce abnormal noises, mainly manifested as sharp metal friction sounds, accompanied by poor braking performance; 2. Hard brake pad material: Since most original brake pads are made of semi-metallic materials, friction between the pads can easily generate noise; 3. Foreign objects between brake pads: During driving, foreign objects such as sand or gravel may get lodged between the brake pads or discs, causing abnormal noises during braking; 4. Improper installation of the braking system: This is mainly related to the spacing between the brake pads and discs, as well as the tightness of the nuts.

What to Do When Car Windows Won't Roll Up or Down?

Solutions for car windows that won't roll up or down: 1. Reset the window lift system: Seek professional technical assistance; 2. Clean debris from the glass guide channel: The owner can use a wet towel or chopsticks to reach into the glass guide channel, applying force to scrape up and down for cleaning, while continuously washing away the removed dirt until the guide channel is completely clean. After cleaning, check if the window glass returns to normal operation; 3. Directly replace the window regulator switch: The window lift switch is a common component in daily vehicle use, with high frequency of use, leading to a higher probability of damage. If the window cannot be rolled up or down, replacing the car window regulator is recommended. Owners are advised to visit a 4S shop for replacement.
