In Belgium, you need to pay road tax for each vehicle in your possession (also for motorcycles with engine displacements > 50 cc). As a SHAPE member (not Belgian) you are free from road tax for one vehicle. In case you have more vehicles, you are exempted from road tax for the vehicle with the largest engine size.
