wastes 150 ml. of petrol.

sudden accelerations wastes 100 ml. of
petrol.
Stop brake riding

Brake riding pushes the brake shoes /
pads to come in contact with revolving
drum / disc. To overcome the resulting
frictional load, engine burns additional
petrol.
Result : Low mileage, loss of power, faster
wear of brake shoes / pads and drum /
disc.
Never clutch ride
Clutch riding slips the clutch & engine drive
does not get totally transferred to the rear
wheel. Besides low mileage, clutch riding
ends up with burnt friction plates of clutch,
loss of power and engine overheating.
Avoid frequent braking
 Braking arrests the road speed. Motorcycle
momentum is reduced. Additional fuel is
burnt for subsequent acceleration.
 For better mileage, use front and rear
b rak e s on l y w h en a b sol u te l y n e e de d .
Control vehicle speed with throttle and
gear like smart riders always do.
Avoid over loading

Over loading tires the engine, wears the
parts faster and reduces mileage.
Park your vehicle in shade when not in use

Petrol is highly volatile. It evaporates under
normal atmospheric tempe rature. The
evaportion increases with temperature.
Prevent this loss by always parking your
vehicle under shade.

Too few Kms. running per day allows more
time for evaporation affecting the mileage.
