Last updated: July 2026 dataJapan leads US imports in this mid-to-large displacement band, supplying the sport, naked, and adventure-touring models that dominate the 500–800 cc segment, with Thailand and Italy also prominent sources. The US schedule breaks the heading into three sub-bands — 500–700 cc (8711403000), 700–790 cc (8711406030), and 790–800 cc (8711406060) — so a difference of even a few cubic centimeters can shift a shipment to a different tariff line. Importers should note that Chinese-origin motorcycles in this class may be subject to Section 301 tariffs, adding a cost consideration when sourcing from that origin.

Manufacturers often design engines just under or at round-number displacement thresholds for regulatory or marketing reasons, so CBP created distinct lines to ensure accurate duty treatment for each cluster of models.
