First, if its your first bike, buy something you dont mind damaging, like used 3-5 year old bike, or a rebuild (yes they are safe). You will save a shitload of money, and if you drop it it wont hurt you as much (perhaps consider already dropped/scraped up/streetfightered/naked bike).
Getting the proper riding gear, and perhaps some bike upgrades like framesliders, as well as maybe lessons, will alone put you out between 1000-3000 to start off with.
Then depending what bike you get and how much you ride it, you are looking at 100-300 every 3 months, plus new tires 12-18 months (unless you really rape your bike).
