How to do mods on a '95 XR250?

[NordieBoy]

FACTS: THESE ARE INDISPUTABLE. MEASURED AND TABLED ....personally and XRJohnny.


1/ A 2005 DRZ 250 uses ....10%....MORE FUEL....than a 2005 DRZ 400 SM. ( DRZ 400SM.....27Km/L on ADV.....30Km/L on SH1...)

2/ A 1600 Capri uses MORE fuel than a 2000 OHC Capri.

....don't seem right, does it.........but it is......

......why is it so, Norty ?

The answer is torque.

The bigger engines seem to have less of an increase in consumption when giving it the beans compared to the smaller bikes.
My DR650 is about 18-20Km/L no matter what you're doing (Better in the hills).
My TT350 is 18-24Km/L.

That 400 is getting some pretty amazing mileage...

One cannot get a 350, unless you go to the previous Century....but am willing to be enlightened

So I'm assuming both bikes were ridden on the same day, the same route by riders of the same weight, with the same gearing and tyres?

Otherwise you can measure and table as much as you like, but you're still comparing apples with oranges..

YES, YES, YES, YES, AND YES and many times over many years


We are comparing a 250's and a 400's FUEL USAGE....AS STATED!!!



PROVIDE FACTS...and fuck off with your meaningless metaphors...

Runs better at altitude then?

Your bikes are Too Rich ! (have you seen my posts with my 'new' Honda on the XR650R thread?)

''Evidently'' BMW 650 Dakar models get around 27km/L

[TINA RAY]

Look at the ''TRIALS UNIVERSAL'' tyres !!!

Hardly a TRAIL/ADV bike eh



Bloody shit-stirrer as usual.....

Here's a fact, my mate's DRZ400 uses more fuel on the same ride as my DRZ400, and it's got nothing to do with engine capacity.

As an aside, I provided more of an idiom than a metaphor.

As another aside, have you considered attending an anger management course?

Not too rich according to the Dyno.


I always felt the XR would be good with an electric start and some decent torque down low.

You stick to your opinions......that's all you have

Have you ever thought of going on a Bullshit Improvement course.


Notice no question mark, as it's rhetorical....

I see you have an Honours in Wrist Racing.

FACT 1: POWER TO WEIGHT RATIO.

eg.
108 Kgs : 250cc @20 hp = Unhappy BIG-Guy

Facts are FACTS.....emotion doesn't change the FACTS !

im just happy to be riding whether it be 18 or 100HP

plus not all mods with decrease HP only the botched or wrongly done will F it up
