Motorcycles can jump ramps: Ramp Jump

As you know, motorcycles jump ramps just fine.

This happens all the time to be a known fact even in arctic regions that are never warm enough for motor bikes. So what do you think Ramp Jump is about? Its about cars and other vehicles that shouldn't be able to jump ramps safely or successfully. Can we just rename this Improbable Ramp Jump to make this more clear?

The definition currently says vehicle, not car, so I don't see the problem.

Because, it says You Fail Physics Forever, even though everyone knows Motorcycles jump ramps all the time. The Myth Busters were specifically talking about how cars could not do the same, and the examples are all about cars, vans and buses that should not have been able to jump ramps in real life but did in fiction.

Then remove that part.

Edit, wait no, read the trope description again, its clearly about cars, I'm maintaining this needs a rename.

This trope is about the improbability of ramp jumping without destroying your vehicle. Can motorcycles safely jump ramps? If not, then they've covered by the trope, hooray. If they can, then we can add a note to that effect in the description. Either way, a rename isn't necessary.

Added a paragraph on motorcycles, explaining that while it isn't physics-defying to jump and land properly, it's still improbable under action-movie conditions.
