In this video I will talk about my fuel economy test for the KTM 250 Adventure. Watch the video to know more about how the test was done and how much I could extract with varied riding conditions.
That's a pretty good fuel economy for a 250cc adv, but I am afraid emptying the tank might lead to fi malfunctioning and all. I think tank to tank is better for the fuel pump, I believe you know this😊. Anyways keep on going brother, enjoys watching your content ❤️😊.
Since I was low on my budget, I went for the xpulse 200 4v instead, completed 600km today and took a tank to tank mileage check too. I almost got 45+ fuel economy after the 1st service. I was wondering if you want to do a review on the xpulse, feel free to ask. Anyways ride safe brother 😊.
Thanks again Joshua. To be frank I heard it before but I forgot that it could lead to fuel pump damages. Hopefully nothing has happened. Next time I do something like this I'll go for tank to tank method. Thank you very much for your valuable tip and concern.
That's great to hear, it's a really good fuel economy at 45+. Congratulations on your new motorcycle. Let's go for a long ride once, what do you say. And if you're interested I would like to do a review.
Post consumption between 9.5 to 10 litres of petrol, it falls onto that reserve mode which means there is still 4.5 litres and approximately.5 litre is called operational reserve which we cannot use at all, to protect the Fuel injector.
I didn’t quite understand you. Do you mean to say even after the engine refuses to start after an empty tank, there is a reserve of 4 to 5 litres of petrol?
@@wheelsontarmac yes, there will be some fuel still left but can't be used as there is no enough pressure for FI to push the fuel. It is meant to keep FI's life in tact. Applicable across most FI engines.
I see, but I had a word with KTM service personnel today, he told once it's over and the engine doesn't start, there is no further reserve. I'll enquire with someone else too.
So when the bike first blinks low fuel that indicates there is around 4 L of petrol in it and with that 4 litre of reserve petrol you traveled around 150Km until your tank was completely empty and your bike stopped. My question is how much of reserve petrol should we keep so that it does not affect the engine because at the ktm service center they had advised me not to use your reserve petrol and try to maintain the fuel level above 4L, what's your point of view?
You should definitely go with the advice from KTM service center. I would say you can fill in petrol may be 20kms after it starts blinking low fuel. (I never understood how it suddenly shows low fuel; during a recent ride, it was showing 150km range and a few seconds later it showed low fuel). I would say definitely avoid running out of fuel. Using a bit of reserve will not be an issue. Hope this helps.
Sure brother, I can do that. I will find a highway to test top speed as highways near me are filled with speedtraps and the one's without them are filled with idiots coming in the wrong side. But I'll make it happen.
Hi brother, I couldn't find much variation after service. I recommend that you break in properly, even though the manual says don't go above 7500rpm in each gear, I recommend 4.5k to 5k rpm in each gear. I can make a video regarding breaking in if it would be of help.
@@wheelsontarmac ok thank you bro so mouch...and....200kg total weight(pilion,rider and panniers plus lagguage)...is it to mouch for this bike to wear??
I think the maximum weight I have carried on the bike is 130kgs, that was okay. So I think 200 will be an attainable feat. The engine has enough grunt to pull weight, just ensure that your pillion doesn't move around unnecessarily

Sure 😊
The only video where one says the mileage at beginning. 2nd video from you I've watched. You sound honest. So subbed 👍
Thank you so much Raja, it means a lot. Thanks a ton for your support.
Yes subscribed 👌👍
Thank you so much Gitesh, it means a lot. 😊
Nice video bro, Im gonna get my adv 250 in 2 months 😀.
You’re welcome Soundar. That’s a wonderful news. All the best brother on your new journey.
So much appreciate this video, really on point and crisp like you said 'no beating around the bush'
Thank you very much. 😊

@@surendrakarnataka198 theres no reserve in FI engine brother
@@arrow5515 I am referring to Speedometer indicated reserve which is available in almost all FI vehicles
It's good that u speak English becoz not everyone know Hindi
Thank you so much. That was my intention while deciding to start the channel in English. I'm so glad you find it good. ☺️☺️
tnku for the test
You're welcome:) thank you so much for your time.

I will get Nov 17th my bike adv250
Congratulations 👏👏
Not a big deal. 250 cc can provide mileage of 40 kmpl in real life.
Yes thank you. In fact I used to get 41 to 42 initially when I used to ride it on less crowded roads.
bro can you do a top speed and comfortable cruse speed video
Sure brother, I can do that. I will find a highway to test top speed as highways near me are filled with speedtraps and the one's without them are filled with idiots coming in the wrong side. But I'll make it happen.
Hi bro, 3 days back I purchased this bike and now I am getting 30kmpl. Will it increase after service?
Hi brother, I couldn't find much variation after service. I recommend that you break in properly, even though the manual says don't go above 7500rpm in each gear, I recommend 4.5k to 5k rpm in each gear. I can make a video regarding breaking in if it would be of help.
@@wheelsontarmac ok bro thanks 👍🏻
Please make a video on breaking in
Sorry I missed your comment; I will make a video on that. Thanks a ton for the suggestion.
I getting 25 km only
On the nice open flat road solo ride at 80kmh constant trottle...easy chill ride....in 6 gear....40kmpl is real??
Yes it is real. And those conditions are the best at home feel for this motorcycle as well.
@@wheelsontarmac ok thank you bro so mouch...and....200kg total weight(pilion,rider and panniers plus lagguage)...is it to mouch for this bike to wear??

@@wheelsontarmac okok..so,you and plus 130kg??
Nope, me and pillion and saddle bags (or top box - I think it was top box).
