The invention relates to a front wheel suspension for a single-track vehicle, in particular a motorcycle, bicycle, or the like, wherein a front wheel (1) is rotatably supported on a fork-like wheel carrier (2) and the wheel carrier (2) is or can be coupled to a frame (8) and a steering bar (4) of the vehicle connected to a handlebar (9), wherein the steering bar (4) is coupled to the wheel carrier (2) by means of a lever connection (3), wherein it is provided that the wheel carrier (2) is coupled to at least one frame bar (17, 18, 19) by means of an articulated connection (5, 6, 7) separate from the wheel carrier, and that the articulated connection has a substantially vertical pivot axis (5) substantially in a line between the articulated mounting of the steering bar (4) on the frame (8) and the support of the front wheel (1) on the wheel carrier (2); and substantially parallel to the steering bar (4), whereby a front wheel suspension for a single-track vehicle having improved characteristics in regard to the suspension, the direct handling of the steering, and a reduction of the load of the frame (8) can be provided.
