Oh yes, and if the ferry is not to much a trip to scissily is worthwhile to go and look at Etna.

Some of the best offroading is in Sicily. So drive to Naples (should take 2 days) then get the overnight ferry to Sicily. Once out of the towns the scenery and offroad potential is great.

Pompei was wonderful, I stayed in the hotel next door to the entrance to the old city, they even had a nice secure place out of sight for the bike.

Spent all day mooching around the ruins, not really ruined, but a little worn. The history is amazing and the paint on the walls that is 2000 years old is just unbeleivable.

Rome is bedlam, I couldn`t imagine it in a car, Florence is the same.

We met some really nice people in rural hotels, don`t like big flash hotels, so impersonal.....Campsites are better though in every country.....You meet real people on campsites :D

If I can be of any help, I live in Tuscany, a place called Viareggio, just NW of Pisa. There are some great places here and a large offroad community. There is a very good club and the natives are very friendly and helpful. The language is not a problem, they all want seem to want to show off their English skills. Here is a good link  http://info@offroadclubversilia.it

Sorry I have been to 3 different parts of Italy but couldnt understand why people rave on about it, Amalfi coast is nice but Pizza, Rome, and Napals not as good as i thought, Rome is full of beggers I would only go if you wanted to see all the church type attractions, if you do walk its quicker than driving
Pizza is a small town with a church and a wobbly tower no que to go in it though due to the admission price
Napels is a bit tumble down.
Your best bet is to take Sinbads very kind offer, locals always know the best places.
