How should I improve the mileage...?

Question

If I have a gearless two-wheeler vehicle, what should be my average speed, and driving behaviour to give optimum milage?

Lets take Bajaj Saffire.. I don't know its specifications, but you can figure out..

Answer 1

The standard answer to this kind of question includes:

* The owner's manual for the vehicle has some recommended oil change frequency ... well if you change the oil twice as often, you get better value ... likewise various engine parts need to be checked every 20,000 miles or so ... you do it twice as often as the manual suggests, some stuff you can check yourself when you gas up, like tire pressure

* when you first get the vehicle, drive it at a moderate speed for the first few hundred miles ... the dealer where you buy it can advise on this ... the purpose of this is to "warm up" a new engine, don't abuse it Also you get accustomed to normal engine noises so you can tell when you hear unreasonable noise, and get it serviced ASAP

* You will need to do some research to find out if this is true for a two wheeler like it is true for some autos ... engine wear on a car is proportional to 2 factors:
is the engine warm, associated with running for a while, or is it cold because it just got started
are you driving backwards or forwards (I don't know if you can drive backwards on a 2 wheeler)
anyhow the amount of engine wear for an auto driving backwards when it is cold, is about the same as driving it forwards 500 miles when it is warm
so after you have figured that out ... there is the trade off between getting good mileage out of the engine, not consuming a lot of gasoline, and your impact on the environment

1) Keep starts and stops smooth.
Nailing the pedal to the floor in “jackrabbit starts” wastes gas. Abrupt stops also waste fuel—and cause extra wear and tear.

2) Perform routine care.
Dirty air filters and oil filters, worn spark plugs, neglected oil changes and problems with the emission-control system can reduce fuel economy. Change your oil and check the filters every 2000 miles for peak performance.

3) Maintain tires and keep wheels aligned.
Low tire air pressure is dangerous—and costly. It creates a drag on the engine, prematurely wears out tires and burns more gas. Misaligned wheels, worn wheel bearings or dragging brakes also can reduce fuel economy by 10%.

4) Buy the right octane.
Most cars work fine on regular gas (unless you hear an engine knock). But you should use the octane the carmaker specifies.


5) Lighten the load.
Added weight lowers fuel economy.

6) Stay out of traffic.
Stop-and-go traffic takes a drastic toll on fuel usage. If at all possible, plan your trips to avoid periods of peak traffic congestion. Also try to avoid unnecessary idling, which burns more gas than turning off and restarting the engine.

7) Drive smart.
First, keep your speed down: Going 65 mph uses about 15% more fuel than going 55mph, and going 70 to 75 mph may consume 25% more. Second, keep a constant speed—use cruise control if you can. Finally, use overdrive if you have it(most vehicles with automatic transmissions do). That way, the vehicle will shift into gas-saving mode at about 50 mph.

8) Plan your errands.
Taking frequent short trips will guzzle gas. Instead, try to combine errands with your daily commute: Pick up your dry cleaning on the way home from work, for example.

9) Fill up in the morning.
You’ll get slightly more fuel for your dollar if you fill up when it’s cooler outside. (Cooler gasoline is more compact.) Over time, the savings can add up!

Thats all

This type of question is very dependent on the actual bike you are using. You will have to experiment to find what works best for how you have the bike configured, and your weight.

For instance on my motorcycle, with the after market windshield, bags, and all the extra crud on my bike will start to loose miles per gallon if I drive over about 70mph. The bike still has a plenty power, and runs great, but the mpg do start to suffer.

Hope that gives you a good example.

Answer 5

If it's a gearless two wheeler, it's not a motorcycle. Sorry. But if you mean something along the lines of a moped, you can get about 60mpg, if you take care of it, but you'll rarely get up past 45mph, and thats if your lucky, and on a big hill.

discover ways to look forward andpersistent easily. shop a reliable distance between you and the motor vehicle(s) earlier than you. this way you are able to stay at extra of a relentless speed and stay away from utilising the brakes and then accelerating. bear in mind that an accelerating automobile continually makes use of extra gas than one vacationing at a relentless speed. Get off the gas faster and coast extra. occasion - way forward you notice vehicles stopped at a purple easy. Get off the gas and enable your automobile coast till the vehicles forward sparkling out. stay away from the habit of utilising basically approximately top as much as the vehicles forward, then combating, and then accelerating back.

Different engines are designed to be most eficient at different rpm's. There are so many variables there is no correct answer considering we do not know what you are driving/riding. What kind of engine and what size engine ? Is it a 4 stroke engine ? Is it a 2,3,4 or 5 valve head ?
