CBT first with a local group
Theory whenerver
then lessons before taking your Module 1; then take Module 2 then you've passed - just decide whether you want to take a DSA or Standard bike license. With standard you'll be limited to 33bhp for 2 years but can effectively ride whatever machine you liek so long as its restricted. With DSA you can jump on anything full stop

CBT £55 (incl. Bike Hire)
Theory £55
Module A £15
Module B £90 (iirc)
so around £215 just for the tests and thats ebfore you factor in lessons, bike hire, bike purchase ( if you intend to buy something to learn on) and gear

Probably a £1000 all in
These are all estimates:
Helmet £200 ( I never understand why people buy superbikes etc for ££££s then spend £40 on a helmet from TK Maxx)
Gloves £40
Boots £100
Bike Jacket £150
Tests £215
Thats £700+ Then you have lesson/bike hire costs
