Never trust the fuel gauge needle alone. Follow the gold standard in vehicle fuel telemetry.
Step 1: Fill Tank to the Brim
Visit a trusted petrol pump. Fill your motorcycle fuel tank completely until the fuel reaches the inner neck collar.
Step 2: Reset Trip Meter to 0.0
Reset Trip A on your digital speedometer to 0.0 km. If using an analog odometer, record the exact current reading (e.g. 15,200 km).
Step 3: Ride Normally (100–200 km)
Ride your normal daily routine for a few days across typical traffic conditions. Avoid artificial hypermiling to capture true real-world consumption.
Step 4: Refill & Calculate Formula
Refill the tank to the exact same brim. Divide trip kilometers by liters added: Mileage (km/L) = Distance (km) ÷ Liters.
Cost Per Kilometer Formula (BDT)
Calculate your exact driving cost: Cost (৳/km) = Total Money Spent (৳) ÷ Distance Driven (km).
Automate it with MotoCare

Factors That Skew Bike Mileage in Bangladesh
Understanding why your test mileage may vary across seasons and traffic zones:
Dhaka Traffic Jam Idling
Idling for 1 hour at Mohakhali or Mirpur burns approximately 0.25–0.4 liters of fuel with zero distance gained.
Pump Dispenser Calibration
Fuel dispensers at some untrustworthy pumps deliver short measures. Always test at certified franchise petrol stations.
Half-Clutch Riding in Jams
Riding continuously in 1st/2nd gear with half-pressed clutch slips engine power and drops fuel efficiency by up to 25%.
Tire Pressure Variation
Tire air pressure drops naturally over 2–3 weeks. Riding with 22 PSI instead of 33 PSI significantly increases rolling drag.
