Embodiment Construction

[0060] Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 22 .

[0061] 1 is a schematic side view of a scooter as a typical example of a straddle-type vehicle, and figure 2 is a schematic side view of a front cover, an inner fender, and a leg guard, all of which are cover members, showing their assembled state.

[0062] For the scooter 1, the body frame 3 adopts a structure including a steel main frame 7 extending downward from the head pipe 5 toward the rear, and a pair of left and right sides extending upward at the rear end of the main frame 7 toward the rear. Steel side frame 9 and 9. Between the side frames 9 and 9, a swing type power unit 11 is pivoted to be able to swing in the vertical direction. The swing type power unit 11 is connected with the engine 13, the gear box 15 (including the V-belt type continuously variable transmission on the left part of the engine 13), the air filter 17 and the like to form a who...

Abstract

A saddle riding-type motorcycle has covers (53, 33) that are vertically coupled and closed together. One (53) of the covers has an engagement groove (71) with an insertion opening (79), and the other (33) has an engagement projection (57) that engages the engagement groove (71) when inserted from the insertion opening (79). In the engagement groove (71) is provided a guiding surface (71a) for guiding, when the engagement groove (71) and the engagement projection (57) are engaged, an edge (33a) of the one cover (33) and an edge (53a) of the other cover (53) to the direction of the coupling. The two covers are reliably coupled through the guiding surface (71a).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to, for example, a straddle-type vehicle suitable for a scooter or the like. Background technique [0002] Small motorcycles generally have a structure in which a body frame is completely covered by a cover member. [0003] The cover member includes, for example, a front cover and a leg guard for covering the front and rear of the steering shaft, and includes, at its outer side, footrests for placing feet thereon, and for covering its lower sides. The side cover of the seat plate (see JP-A-6-156349). [0004] For the cover member covering the vehicle body frame, a means of dividing it into multiple pieces is employed in consideration of formability or assembly performance. [0005] When the assembly is completed, the divided cover members cause a height difference or a gap to a connecting line of one cover member and another cover member, resulting in poor appearance. This often creates problems in terms of appearance q...
