This is my initial draft for a 3 week motorcycle tour around the Adriatic in september. I was initially going to take the ferry from Dubrovnik to Bari, but decided to leave from Durre so I can catch the bay of Kotor as well, though I don't know if it's worth passing through Albania or I should just turn around and go back to Dubrovnik.

Ravenna is pretty cool if you like churches and Roman/Gothic history. Might as well make a quick stop.

Albania is worth it if you travel either to the beaches in the south or the alps in the north. Shkodër and Durrës are nice, but there's not much noteworthy between them. You can also take a ferry from Vlorë.

If you're in that area already, go up north to Predil/Predel pass and drive down the Soča valley to enjoy some nice driving roads. September is kinda high season but still should be a bit quieter than July/August. You won't need any vignette for that. Stop by Piran, it's worth to stroll around the city. You can get some amazing food at Fritolin.In Croatia, go island hopping, it's really worth it imho. From Pula, you can go to Cres then to Krk and back to mainland via the Krk bridge for example. Also Split - Stari Grad on Hvar and then to Sućuraj-Drvenik ferry comes to mind.In my opinion Albania is worth it if you visit Gjirokaster and Krujë. Krujë is closer to your route, while Gjirokaster is around 3-4 hour drive to the south.Stop by at Portiku in Durrës for some decent food. You have a cool Air Force and Army museum close to Tirana if you're into that sort of stuff. If you decide to go down to Gjirokaster, stop by at Taverna Mouzaki for delicious local food.

It would be wise to have a quick stop in Zadar and maybe Trogir on your way. They can't be compared to Italian cities but the old towns are nice for a quick walk.
