I have a 2009 Kawi KLX250sf. The supermoto model.
I just had some basic mods done. Air snorkle removal, stage 2 jet kit, muzzy full exhuast.
When it was stock, I would get around 160km's from the 7.7litre tank aggresive city riding. I would switch it to reserve and head for a gas station pretty soon after.
The mods have made a noticeable improvement in performance. It pulls a lot harder and starts easier on cold mornings. Throttle response is quicker. The downside is the first full tank after the mods I got slightly over 140km's and the second tank it was 137km's before I had to switch it to reserve.
Is it normal to lose that much mileage for these types of mods?
I'm also considering a 351cc bore kit. Now I'm worried I might get only around 100km's from a tank....lol. So much for touring on this bike.
