FACTS

In addition to the three-wheeled, all-terrain motor cycles referred to in Taxation Ruling No. ST 2068, certain models of two-wheeled motor cycles are also accepted as implements or apparatus machinery, of a kind used exclusively, or primarily and principally, in agricultural industry and are accepted as conditionally exempt when sold for use in that industry.

2. Whether exemption applies depends upon the incorporation into the models of motor cycles of the distinguishing features detailed on ST 2068 and upon evidence of their actual usage.
