Fuel consumption

[B0000M]

On my 2 stroke 125 i get about 55kms to a tank. but thats just taking it easy

yea thats about what i could get on my old 125 too

Don't worry about all that.Get a big bike,give it a handful,shut it off,and you can normally roll the rest of the way!Uses far less gas,etc.

It's a dirt bike. Who cares. If you are considering fuel economy issues you are probably getting the wrong bike for the wrong purpose. The thought of commuting a 2 stroke KTM makes me cringe.

If you are after a small adventure bike and it sounds like you are.
My wife had a DRZ250 that got about 33km/l, my TTR600, MZ500 and wifes DR650 all get about 25 km/l. Tank size is the next issue but that info is pretty widely available fro the manufacturers. I put a 20l tank on the TTR as the stock tank (9l) had a range to reserve of 140km and a range to stop of 180. Not a problem for weekend rides (in the north island anyway) but I commute 50km each day and got bored with stopping for gas twice a week. Big tanks do make them a little ungainly in the bush.

yea im after a dualy for the road so i can supermoto it and keep some dirt wheels for the weekends you no ?? yea ive heard of acerbis (sp) long range tanks you can get for the xrs although i just really need to no if i can get 200 out a standard xr then im sweet as.

Don't know about the XR but I'd guess you will easily get 200 from a tank. If it holds more than 7 liters you will be fine. I'd look at the DRZ250 as well if I was you. Electric start.
