Then mark the reasons it's not suitable. We have this same discussion with cycling (in fact, Peter Miller had an entire presentation on this issue at SOTM09 - he just suggested the wrong solution :-) ). One persons "unsuitable for motorcycles" is another person's fun and games. So if the problem is that there are steps, then mark the steps. If the problem is that there's a massive chasm with a log over it, then mark bridge=yes width=0.25m surface=log maxweight=150kg (or similar!). Mark the stepping stones as stepping stones. In short, mark the facts that lead you to think it's not suitable, and leave the judgement to the producers of the map as to what they think is appropriate for their particular audience.
