About motorcycles (including mopeds) and cycles; fitted with an auxiliary motor, internal combustion piston engine, of cylinder capacity exceeding 50cc but not exceeding 250cc, with or without side-cars; side-cars

HS code 871120 covers a significant segment of the global motorcycle industry, encompassing motorcycles and mopeds with internal combustion piston engines ranging from 50cc to 250cc. This category plays a crucial role in providing affordable and efficient transportation solutions, particularly in developing and emerging economies where motorcycles are a popular mode of commuting. The production and trade of these vehicles contribute significantly to the broader transportation and manufacturing sectors worldwide.

Production process

The production of motorcycles and mopeds under HS code 871120 typically involves a multi-stage process. Key steps include the fabrication of the frame and body components, the assembly of the engine and drivetrain, the installation of electrical and electronic systems, and the final assembly and quality control checks. Manufacturers often utilize advanced manufacturing techniques, such as computer-aided design (CAD) and computer numerical control (CNC) machining, to ensure precision and efficiency in the production process.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of motorcycles and mopeds under HS code 871120 include raw materials such as steel, aluminum, and plastics for the frame and body components, as well as specialized engine components like pistons, crankshafts, and carburetors. Additionally, manufacturers rely on various electrical and electronic components, such as batteries, ignition systems, and lighting fixtures. Specialized machinery and tools, including welding equipment, assembly lines, and testing equipment, are also essential inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 871120 is motorcycles and mopeds with internal combustion piston engines ranging from 50cc to 250cc. These vehicles are often consumed by 871130 (Motorcycles (including mopeds) and cycles; fitted with an auxiliary motor, internal combustion piston engine, of cylinder capacity exceeding 250cc) and 871140 (Motorcycles (including mopeds) and cycles; fitted with an auxiliary motor, other than internal combustion piston engine) for further distribution and use in the transportation sector. Additionally, the components and parts produced for these motorcycles and mopeds may be consumed by 871190 (Motorcycles (including mopeds) and cycles; fitted with an auxiliary motor, and side-cars; parts and accessories, n.e.s.).
