I don't know the price for a bike off-hand, but a car on this ferry costs about 35,000 Sudanese Dinars (around US$150). There's also a vehicle departure tax of about US$20.
Buy tickets in Port Sudan, Khartoum or Suakin (ferries actually sail from Suakin, not Port Sudan which is a freight port only).
Frequencies of ferries vary - usually one a week, but more in the months in the run up to the Haj in Saudi.
At the risk of a shameless plug, this ferry crossing is covered - along with all open overland routes to Sudan - in the Bradt Sudan guidebook, of which I am the author...
