Overview
This HTS classification covers motorcycles, mopeds, and cycles equipped with an auxiliary motor, specifically those fitted with an internal combustion piston engine having a cylinder capacity greater than 490 cubic centimeters (cc) but not exceeding 500 cc. This definition includes the vehicle itself, whether it has a sidecar or not, and any associated sidecars. The primary distinguishing factor for this category is the precise engine displacement range.
This category is differentiated from its siblings by its narrow engine capacity window. Unlike 8711.30.00.30, which covers engines exceeding 250 cc but not exceeding 290 cc, and 8711.30.00.60, which encompasses engines exceeding 290 cc but not exceeding 490 cc, this category focuses solely on the very specific range of 490 cc up to and including 500 cc. Vehicles falling outside this precise displacement will be classified under a different subheading.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories for this specific classification. Therefore, any motorcycle, moped, or cycle with an auxiliary motor that meets the criteria of having an internal combustion piston engine with a cylinder capacity exceeding 490 cc but not exceeding 500 cc will be classified directly under 8711.30.00.90. Classification hinges entirely on meeting this exact engine displacement requirement, aligning with the broader scope of Chapter 87 for powered two-wheeled vehicles.
