Show the answer and walk-through
CBP's answer: D. D: 8711.60.0090
Subheading 8711.60 covers motorcycles with an electric motor for propulsion, split by output. The lowest line is for an output not exceeding 250 W, and an 80 kW motorcycle is far above that, so it goes in the 'Other' line, 8711.60.0090 (D).
With electric motor for propulsion > Of an output not exceeding 250 W 8711.60.00.50
With electric motor for propulsion > Other 8711.60.00.90
