Overview
This HTS classification specifically covers motorcycles, including mopeds, and cycles equipped with an auxiliary motor. The defining characteristic for this category is the internal combustion piston engine's cylinder capacity, which must exceed 250 cubic centimeters (cc) but not exceed 290 cc. This includes vehicles that may be fitted with a side-car.
To distinguish this category from its siblings, it's crucial to focus on the precise engine displacement. Category 8711.30.00.30 applies only when the engine capacity falls within the narrow range of more than 250 cc and up to and including 290 cc. In contrast, sibling category 8711.30.00.60 covers engines with a slightly larger displacement, exceeding 290 cc but not exceeding 490 cc, and 8711.30.00.90 is for engines exceeding 490 cc but not exceeding 500 cc. Therefore, meticulous measurement of the engine's cylinder capacity is paramount for accurate classification.
As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Classification at this level is solely determined by the engine's cubic centimeter displacement falling within the defined 250-290 cc range. Examples of motorcycles falling under this classification would be models specifically designed with engines precisely within this specified capacity, such as certain mid-range sport bikes or touring motorcycles known for this engine size.
