About motorcycles (including mopeds) and cycles; fitted with an auxiliary motor, with or without side-cars; side-cars

hs code 8711 covers a diverse range of motorcycles, mopeds, and cycles that are fitted with an auxiliary motor. This industry plays a crucial role in the transportation sector, providing affordable and efficient mobility solutions for individuals and businesses alike. As the global demand for personal transportation continues to grow, the 8711 industry has become an integral part of the broader economy, contributing to economic development, job creation, and the facilitation of trade and commerce.

Production process

The production of motorcycles, mopeds, and cycles under hs code 8711 typically involves a multi-step process. This includes the fabrication of the frame, the assembly of the engine and transmission components, the installation of the electrical systems, and the final assembly and testing of the complete vehicle. Manufacturers often utilize advanced manufacturing techniques, such as computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-numerical control (CNC) machining, to ensure precision, efficiency, and consistency in the production process.

Production inputs

The 8711 industry requires a range of inputs, including raw materials such as steel, aluminum, and plastics for the frame and body components, as well as specialized engine and transmission parts, electrical components, and various fasteners and fittings. Additionally, the industry relies on advanced manufacturing equipment, such as welding machines, assembly lines, and testing facilities, to ensure the quality and reliability of the final products.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the 8711 industry are motorcycles, mopeds, and cycles fitted with auxiliary motors. These products are consumed by a wide range of end-users, including individual consumers, delivery services, and commercial transportation providers. The outputs of the 8711 industry may also be used as inputs for other related industries, such as 8712 (Bicycles and other cycles (including delivery tricycles), not motorized), 8714 Parts and accessories of vehicles of headings 8711 to 8713, and 8716 Trailers and semi-trailers; other vehicles, not mechanically propelled; parts thereof, which rely on the components and technologies developed within the 8711 industry.
