Overview
This HTS classification, 8711.20.00.60, specifically covers motorcycles and cycles equipped with an auxiliary motor, including those with sidecars, powered by an internal combustion piston engine. The defining characteristic of this category is the engine's cylinder capacity, which must exceed 90 cubic centimeters (cc) but not exceed 190 cubic centimeters (cc). This precise range ensures that vehicles with larger or smaller engines are classified elsewhere.
To distinguish this category from its siblings, it's important to note the distinct cylinder capacity ranges. HTS code 8711.20.00.30 encompasses vehicles with engines exceeding 50 cc but not exceeding 90 cc, representing a smaller engine class. Conversely, HTS code 8711.20.00.90 covers engines that are larger, exceeding 190 cc but not exceeding 250 cc. This specific node, 8711.20.00.60, therefore isolates the mid-range engine capacity within the 50-250 cc bracket.
As this classification is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. This means that any motorcycle or motor-assisted cycle falling within the specified internal combustion piston engine capacity of over 90 cc but not over 190 cc will be directly classified under this code. Practical considerations for classification would include verifying the stated engine displacement of the vehicle and confirming it aligns with the parameters outlined in this HTS code.
