Take a mini bus like "888" but travel via Bogor, Puncak then Bandung.
Stay overnight in Bandung. You could then take a day bus from Bandung to Jogya. I always take day busses and travel first class because the AC is always FULL AC! First class in not expensive.
Once in Jogya you could take a day trip and travel to Borobodur and the surrounding area. Then travel to Solo and Surabaya then via Mt Bromo for a quick visit or overnight. Then on to Banyuwangi for the ferry.
If you can afford a car and driver it would be even better as you would not be reliant on public transport and have to que to buy tickets etc.
I wanted to do the motor bike trip many years ago but never got around to it.
