I hear people saying it is a 100% tax? So that means a $10k bike will cost $20k? Do I understand that correctly?

The tariff is applied to the value for duty (VFD) of the imported goods. The VFD is the importer's cost from the vendor, not the retail price when the goods are sold. Assume a bike has a retail price of $10k and the importer's cost is $8K. The 100% duty rate would add $8K to the importer's cost, meaning the importer's net cost to import the goods (excluding other taxes and fees) would be $16K.

Can foreigners (living outside the USA) fill it in as well?
I have bought a fair amount of spares and accessories from the USA OVER THE YEARS so it will have a small impact on my riding as well

I agree. Ive been a little disappointed in some responses from people. I just think this is wrong whether you ride dirt bikes or not. Everyone should take an interest in this.
