It's also assuming that even if liquid fuel is being used that it's of a
gasoline type, and not -- say -- a binary fuel or something less
flammable. It also assumes that self sealing gas tanks aren't being
used. I'd imagine tracers could brew up a gas tank rather badly, but I
think there are ways of forming gas tanks to lessen the chance of
brewing up.

Maybe some rules could be added for taking out the motorcycles with
small arms fire?
