I like their tax system for big bikes, it's to say, "hey, less than (X)hp is all you need in a bike, anything larger we won't stop you from having, but it is a luxury good, and should be taxed as such" and why not add a levy on luxury items? It works both ways, food and mandatory protective gear and tax free here, so I pay no tax on motorcycle helmets and bread and milk.
I've come to realise that the only people that seem to have a problem with it are people not affected by it getting outraged, including myself at one point.
