The import of large bikes blockade was ended after three years, two years early.

Honda makes their Goldwings in the USA so if there is a tarriff it would not apply to them.

Are you sure about that? seems a tarrif on big bikes would be more about keeping manufacturing in the USA rather than protecting Harley Davidson.

The comment period for the new 100% tariff on European motorcycles ended Monday. Beef hormone ban retaliation.
