Perfect! Thanks Lonerider & PanEuropean, so not much differences with my petrol stations.
I have another question, if you don´t mind

I will reach and leave Slovenia from Zagreb, do I will need the slovenian vignette? almost sure but, do you know where do I can bought it?

Thanks in advance.

A little gift, this is an aproximation of my future route. I would preferred more Bosnia and even Serbia and Montenegro butttt...time and wife rules

You only need a Vignette if you intend on going on the Motorway or some Expressways. I didn't use them so I didn't get one. I prefer using small roads.
Have a look at this site, it explains it well, including where you can buy them from

Vignette - Toll Stickers - FAQ - Slovenia - Official Travel Guide -

I can't view the maps with out logging on to google?!!

Noup, from Dubrovnik to Montenegro. We will take the bike there and start the route one (the first link): dalmacian coast, Zagreb, Slovenia and route two (second link): back to Zagreb, Bosnia and back to Dubrovnik
This is the initial plan.

Ah ok, loads to see on those routes, I did quite a bit of what you are doing.
Make sure you do Snake pass/Road, or whatever you want to call it, near Kotor and if you get time pop in and visit Budva Bikers Bar N42.28231 E18.83794 in Budva, the atmosphere was really good the evening i was there.
There are a lot of Castles in the Bihač area if you like that kind of thing
Waterfalls in Jajce are nice to see
All my planning and routes are on the RR
The area around Lake Bled is really nice try to get up the Vrsic Pass

In Slovenia there's a beautiful route through the Triglav Nat. Park that worth considering. Easy to follow with a basic map - or following road signs for your list of town names.

Wurzen pass from Austria, Kranjska Gora, Triglav NP (via Trenta , Soca) Bovec, Kobarid, Tolmin following Soca river .
From Tolmin south to the motorway or east via Lake Bohinj (fab!) and Bled
It's possible to do this route in day and arrive in Ljubljana.
