Does anyone have experiences and tips for Sicily?

At our last regular table a motorcycle and big scooter tour to/from Sicily was proposed. A look at the topography of the island at first sight highly interesting expected. We imagine that the destination on Pentecost next year should be well to drive. What deterred is the wide access path and possibly bad road conditions and possibly ruthless Fiat drivers. Has someone experience with motorcycle rides on Sicily and with ferry connections there. Also information about accommodations would be helpful. Thank you already in advance for your opinions.
