At Delhi's petrol price of ₹94.80 a litre and a real-world 49.5 kmpl, the Burgman Street EX costs about ₹1.92 per km in fuel. Ride 30 km a day and that is roughly ₹1,494 a month, or ₹17,926 a year, before servicing.

Spread over five years and 46,800 km, the Burgman Street EX works out to about ₹5.2 per km all-in, of which 37% is fuel and 54% is the purchase price itself. Resale value is not counted; a nameplate this established holds value well.
Getting the best mileage
The quickest wins for the Burgman Street EX: keep tyres at the recommended pressure (under-inflation by 5 psi can cost 2–3 kmpl), shift up early and avoid idling at long signals, which the idle start-stop system handles for you.
Short trips hurt most. A cold engine on a 2 km run can return half its normal mileage; if that is your use, expect the low end of the real-world band.
Service on time. A clogged air filter or old spark plug shows up in mileage before it shows up anywhere else.
