Thumbs up 100% Tariff dead

The proposed 100% tariff on Euro bikes has been dropped by the U.S. Trade representative.

Great news. I can't imagine the repercussions that might have had.

white kind of tar-tar would even come up mith such a stoopid idea? and cut it off at 500cc, it surprising that someone (in big money)screwing someone else wouldnt go all the way (i.e. 100% on ALL engine sizes) to maximize profits? obviously the idiot that came up with it wasnt motivated by anything but personal gain. its people like this (profiteers) that are causing the rapid downfall of our once great country. maybe he had 1 single iota of shame inside, that could explain th e 500cc limit?
