Bajaj Pulsar N250 City Mileage Test
The YouTuber uses a unique method to test the mileage of the motorcycle. In order to achieve accurate and consistent results, the YouTuber adopts a simple but effective technique. He empties the fuel tank of the bike completely to the point where the bike refuses to switch on. Then he fills exactly 250 ml of fuel into the tank and goes out to ride in the city alone. He sets the trip metre to 0. He drives through regular city traffic where he constantly needs to upshift and downshift. This reflects the normal everyday conditions where most people ride their bikes. At the end of his tour, the bike finally comes to a standstill when the fuel is used up. He was able to ride for 8.3 km in 250 ml. Simple extrapolation indicates a city mileage of 33.2 km/l. This is a healthy mileage considering the fact that it was full of gearshifts and frequent braking and accelerating manoeuvres.
