Titolo: Coming to Italy

Hello
First, I apologize for writing in English, but I'm just beginning to
learn Italian.
I have visited your beautiful country on short vacations and l am
planning to come for 6-12 months in January 2006. 
I would appreciate any advice on finding a place to live while I am
visiting. I plan to live in just about anywhere north of Roma but would
prefer to live within 100 km of Firenze. I don't want to stay in a
hotel or anywhere with a bunch of tourists.  I would prefer to find a
small house or apartment with a garage to park a bike. Every agency I
find in web searches are for short holiday rentals of "vacation villas"
or B&B which is not what I am looking for. I simply want a place that a
resident would live in.
I plan to buy a motorcycle to ride while I am there and need to find
out what I need to do legally to purchase in Italy. If you can help me
out please email me at-
dn...@mac.com
 
I live in Atlanta, Georgia, USA I am very close to some great riding in
the GA/Tennessee/North Carolina mountains and would be happy to help
anyone visiting the area and wanting moto related information. 
Thanks

 out what I need to do legally to purchase in Italy.
I guess first of all you'll have to convert your driving licence.
Concerning this issue as well as buying and insuring a car or a bike,
I suggest you to post a message on soc.culture.italian, as most of
the subscribers of this group are Italians living in the States and
are therefore quite familiar with this kind of topics. Check out also
the FAQ of that group.
Ciao

A little hint:
Don't scratch your butt on a bike in Italy.
No jokes.

Is that a law or just a suggestion?  I try not to scratch in public but
I will admit that sometimes I have to scratch my "package".

Thanks for the information. I don't have to live close to the city
centre. I prefer to save money, and I don't have a problem using a
bike, busses, and my feet. A garage would be nice just to keep the bike
in a dry place.
I'm very excited about riding in Italia (and other countries). I know
that most of the high mountain passes will be closed until late spring
or summer but I hope to ride some by May/June before I have to return
to the US.

 Is that a law or just a suggestion?
A new "fucked" law: if you drive without helmet OR if you drive with only a 
hand on the handle-bar (tipically on the freeway if you are tired) OR if you 
drive raising up your bottom from the saddle (tipically in off road) OR 
other similar situation, this law says that your motorcycle must be 
confiscated (you can say "goodbye" to your bike).

They can take your bike for standing on the pegs or just using one hand
on the bars?!!!!!!
Too bad that the US isn't the only country with idiot politicians. I'll
bet that none of them ever ride bikes.

You can look for houses in small cities near firenze, they are a lot
cheaper then the city centre. A suggestion: cities along the railway line
are more expensive...
