i was under the impression from google searches that the zzr250 btw i have a 2000 model. has a 20km/l fuel consumption... with an 18l tank including reserve making it 360km before u completely stall due to lack of petrol. :kuda: however i get like 350 before i gotta switch 2 reserve and im an 18 yearold arab male that guns it at every opportunity

speaking of fuel i have a 1990 gpx 250 and i was wondering....if i should run the high octane...i heard the age of my bike the engine was nmever designed to have the different fuel combustion ratio or soemthing and it can be potentialy bad for my engine...is this true?

Hey all, i have a 02 ZZR250 which i use the Shell premium in, & i get about 350 before having to switch to reserve, i dont remember how many KM's of reserve i have til empty tho (at least 20-30 from what i remember), i'm on my red P's & usually ( :lol: ) ride pretty conservatively...

Hey guys, on my trip from bris to melb I had a great crack at it, hit 350-360 without going into reserve! Mines a 2007 model ZZR250 with I think a 17litre tank? Feel free to correct that if it's not on the mark ^^ But shit I was impressed with the milage, usually fill up when I get around 280-300.
