What is the fuel consumption per kilometer for a 125cc motorcycle?
2 Answers
Taking a common 125cc cross-type motorcycle as an example, the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is generally around 2.2 liters. Here are the specific details: Performance-oriented motorcycles: Undoubtedly, scooters with good engine performance (such as EFI types) are very fuel-efficient. Although they are more expensive, they are cost-effective in the long run. Some low-quality scooters or mopeds, despite their low prices, are notorious for high fuel consumption. Daily maintenance: According to friends who work in motorcycle repair, frequent oil changes and air filter replacements are crucial in the daily maintenance of scooters. It is recommended to change the engine oil approximately every 1,500 kilometers (using high-quality oil) and replace the air filter every 2,000 kilometers.
I ride a 125cc motorcycle to commute every day, and the fuel consumption is quite economical. Generally, it consumes 2 to 3 liters per 100 kilometers, which works out to about 2 to 3 cents per kilometer in fuel costs. In reality, my Yamaha model averages 2.5 liters per 100 kilometers. At current fuel prices, commuting 20 kilometers a day only costs around 5 to 6 yuan. There are many influencing factors, such as higher speeds or aggressive riding, which can increase fuel consumption to nearly 3 liters. However, maintaining smooth acceleration and regular maintenance can significantly improve it. I think this bike is a great choice for commuters—it saves fuel and money while helping avoid traffic jams.
