Well, magitech armor is based off of Allagan designs, and it's internally consistent with the lore. I still find it a little silly when players ride them around ICly.
Perhaps you haven't noticed though but Eorzea seems to /hate/ wheeled vehicles. Wheeled devices of any sort are /very/ uncommon, including wagons (most of them seem to float). A motorcycle makes no sense, it's completely alien to the lore/art style/ technology in FFXIV.
If they introduced something in the world that gave any sort of depth, then that's fine. However just copy/pasting a motorcycle makes very little sense for a continent that doesn't even have proper roads most places.
