I agree with the MSF course suggestion, you'll learn a lot and come out feeling much more comfortable on a bike. 'Twist of the Wrist II' by Keith Code is the book I'd recommend. It has quite a bit of track focus, but it teaches you techniques that are very applicable on the street as well, including some great mental techniques to improve your riding. Also, you will drop the bike, it is inevitable. I would suggest buying a used naked bike to start off with and install frame sliders. Have fun, riding is incredible, there is no car that can give you the rush and excitement you get from riding.
