We are in the process of doing it at the moment, Europe is not cheap so be prepared for that, but camping is easy, however expect to pay between 5 - 12 euros in a camp site and in some countires now you cannot wild camp, you will be woken up in the night and told to move on. Asia is very cheap 2 of us are getting by on 300 quid a week and thats including everything, you could do it for less but we have been enjoying oursleves eating out, staying in hostels or hotels that are clean and we have done jungle tours etc.
Iran was DIRT cheap we where getting by on 12 dollars a day fuel included, i think the whole trip will set us back about 30k total (we are 2 up on 1 bike so you can prob take 25k for 1 person) but we had an extra couple saved for emergencies like the one im suffering at the moment as we have blown a rear tyre India.
Flying the bike from Nepal is easy, we haven't done it yet but have met plenty of others who have and we have met the guy from Eagle eyes cargo and we know its about 600 dollars. We could not get visa'a for pakistan so we had to get the ferry to Dubai and then fly from Duabi to Nepal which set us back another 1000 dollars.
We looked at getting through tibet and china, but you need 3 other bikes and a 4X4 and you looking abutt 3,000 dollars each for about 1 month, not including fuel, food, or accomdation. You have time so if you want to organise this then you can but its a lengthy process, shame as it would be excellent to do.
Hope this helps,
PM me if u have any questions.
