Residual value of each vehicle should be deducted from the per mile cost. My best would be the $800 Honda Rebel with 1887 miles on the odometer. 620 miles since Sep28th, average MPG just under 80, insurance for 8 months was $45.

Depreciation? On an $800 bike, practically nothing.

A little over 3 cents a mile fuel cost.

Insurance tags and taxes, depend on how much I ride it in the next 7 months.

Total cost per mile, probably less than 10 cents.

If I can write it off at 50 cents a mile.

Paid by taxes saved.
