Add insurance, gas and decent protective gear.
If you're a newbie you'll likely have an expensive off in the first six months which will cost more to fix than a reasonable commuter.
Tyres and servicing costs... a scoot probably gets worn out before a decent bicycle too.

Scooters are probably halfway between bike and car.
