Motorcycle

Abstract

Provided is a motorcycle in which an attachment angle of a tail light bulb is increased to reduce a distance between a seat and a tail light unit, to improve flexibility of short tail design around a tail light of a motorcycle thereby to enhance appearance of the motorcycle, and to make it easier to insert or remove the tail light bulb. A motorcycle includes a rear cowl 60 attached to a rear part of a vehicle body frame 11, a seat catch 90 arranged on a rear end portion of the vehicle body frame 11 and configured to lock and to unlock an openable / closable seat 27, a tail light unit 50 arranged behind the seat catch 90 and attached to the rear cowl 60, a tail light bulb 54 attached to the tail light unit 50 in a forward-tilted state, and a rear fender 100 covering an upper part of a rear wheel WR. An opening 103 that allows access to the tail light bulb 54 is formed at a portion of the rear fender 100 facing the tail light bulb 54.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to motorcycles, and more particularly to the arrangement of tail light devices of motorcycles. Background technique [0002] As a current motorcycle, it is known to incline the axis of the tail light bulb and the plugging direction of the tail light bulb in a direction that does not interfere with the seat and the rear fender (make the position of the tail light bulb the same, and make the tail light bulb Bulb forward leaning) motorcycle (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese National Publication No. 3-41363 [0004] However, in the motorcycle described in the aforementioned Patent Document 1, since the axis of the tail light bulb and the direction of insertion and removal of the tail light bulb are inclined in a direction that does not interfere with the seat and the rear fender, it cannot be increased. The angle of inclination of the axis of the bulb makes it difficult to desig...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the motorcycle described in Patent Document 1, since the axis of the tail light bulb and the direction of insertion and removal of the tail light bulb are inclined in a direction that does not interfere with the seat and the rear fender, it is impossible to increase the size of the tail light bulb. The angle of inclination of the bulb axis makes it difficult to make a design that has the feature of bringing the taillight as close as possible to the seat

In addition, when actually inserting and removing the bulb, it is necessary to open the seat and perform cumbersome work such as inserting and removing the bulb. There is a problem that it is difficult to plug and unplug
