A fellow on ADVRider.com who posts under the name 1UglyBastard took a six week, 12,000 mile ride up to Tuktoyaktuk and back to New Orleans. He rode a Honda CB500X. Here is the breakdown of his costs

Fuel: $817.83
Food and beer: $911.09
Gear (tent, bike parts, new phone, etc): $1017.29
Misc (tours, park entrance, etc): $315.76
Plus ~$400 in cash for supplies, parts and repairs where they didn’t accept credit card
