[net.cycle] Tariff again

bob@varian.UUCP (05/14/83)

	O.K. it's contest time ...

	Who's going to be the first to pay a tariff ? - Be the first
	on your net, roll up and give the government some moneys.

	Let us know what you bought and how you justified it.

	Actually of course most of this years bikes are already here
	and there are a lot of 81 and 82's to be sold yet so it may be a 
	while before anyone pays up. Cycle World explained that the
	tariff is only on the price that the importer pays so the 
	effect on the sticker price should only be about a 10% increase,
	this just means that the tariff will not help Harley at all
	and they will have to appeal again for a higher rate, we'll see.
