a. One hundred percent of the net cost of new, unused, complete farm implements, motorcycles, autocycles, all-terrain vehicles, snowmobiles, or related attachments, which were purchased from the franchiser. In addition, the franchisee shall have a right of payment for transportation charges on the farm implements, motorcycles, autocycles, all-terrain vehicles, or snowmobiles, which have been paid by the franchisee.
