    After a lot of reading, I expected it to be 30-35 Kmpl. However, I’m getting really low numbers i.e 20-21 KMpl. After the bike was brought, every filter and oil was changed from the service center. It went 208 KM in a full tank before the last bar started blinking again.

    Any help would be really appreciated.
    A 2011 CBR run only 8000kms... It's very shady...
    I am saying this cause I own one from the 2011 batch. 9 years and still going strong.

    I believe the speedometer of your bike has been replaced/ reset few months before you bought it. I know this because once or twice the SVC mechanic had to disconnect wires of my bike's speedometer to look at some rattling issue from the front dome.

    Also I think it would be best if you take it SVC and overhaul once just as a precautionary measure.

    You can ask the previous owner where he used to get it serviced and enquire over there about all the works carried out by your previous owner and look for all the parts changed or any other issues the bike came in with.

    As for mileage, if the vehicle was driven very hard previously it can give give you less than 25kmpl. I know this cause a person I came across in HYDERABAD used to get below 20kmpl.

    As for me I use the throttle and brakes lightly. In the early years of riding I used to get 35- 38 kmpl easily.

    Then again over the years I noticed switching to Michelin Pilot street radials reduced the mileage to around 30- 32kmpl.

    Maybe flashing the ECU will erase what it learnt previously and tune to your riding. This should help a little bit but not by much.

    I hope this helps.

    There is nothing that can be done, remove all the nuts and bolts rusted, give it a thorough de-rusting process, get it chromed or use galvanized bolts.

    Cheers!

    Ankit FE depends on your riding style
    Have a look at this video you will have better understanding


    If the bike was used very roughly without maintaining the engine also can affect your FE

    That will save u unnecessarily leaving the bike there for a long period.
    Ok thanks

    Re: Honda CBR 250R

    Yesterday did heavy off roading with my CBR. Being an amateur at off roading, I damaged the clutch. Bike was only running in btwn 3000-4000 rpm. Rest it was only accelerating but bike wasn't moving. Called my mechanic n he advised me to loose the clutch cable to run bike normally & I could reach home.
    Mostly clutch plates r damaged n may be replaced. What would be the cost of it ?

Bike is running fine honestly , and my bike has a full system, air filter and a ecu aswell soo I kept. Should I stick to it or switch To a slightly different oil if the same grade like 7100 or liqui moly or idemitsu of that sort . Just wanted a opinion and experiences shared of anyone else using this oil. The main reason I'm using it as I get it for free literally [emoji28].
    Motul 300v is really good oil. I wish I was getting it for free [emoji16]. A nice detailed video on its performance
