  "text": "Description of the goods\nClassification(CN code)\nReasons\n(1)\n(2)\n(3)\n1.\nA slewing ring, consisting of two concentric forged steel rings, one of which has teeth cut into it.\nThe rings are capable of rotation when separated by rows of steel ball bearings.\nThe steel ring with teeth provides rotational torque transfer.\nThis product is designed to be incorporated in an excavator.\n8483 90 89\nClassification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Note 2 (a) to Section XVI and by the wording of CN codes 8483, 8483 90 and 8483 90 89.\nAs the slewing ring, considering its function, belongs to goods included in a heading of Chapter 84, classification under heading 8431 as part of an excavator is excluded.\nIt is not to be considered as ‘gears or gearing’ of subheading 8483 40 because it consists of a single toothed ring.\nThe turning (slewing) motion, provided by the teeth, determines the function of the product and, therefore, the slewing ring is to be classified as a transmission element presented separately under subheading 8483 90 89.\n2.\nA three-wheeled vehicle, so-called ‘Trike’, with spark-ignition internal combustion reciprocating piston engine of a cylinder capacity of 1 584 cm3.\nThe vehicle has no bodywork and is designed to transport two persons.\nIt is equipped with a handle-bar and a motorcycle-type steering mechanism.\nThe vehicle is also equipped with a gearbox having four forward gears, a reverse gear, and a differential.\n8703 23 19\nClassification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8703, 8703 23 and 8703 23 19.\nAlthough the vehicle is steered by means of a handle-bar and has the appearance of a motorcycle, it cannot be considered as a motorcycle of heading 8711, because of the presence of the reverse gear and the differential.\nTherefore, the product is to be classified as a motor vehicle of a simpler construction, designed for the transport of persons, of heading 8703 (see the HS Explanatory Notes to heading 8703, second paragraph).",
