Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a motorcycle, and more particularly to a motorcycle with an auxiliary water tank. Background Technology

[0002] Most existing motorcycle cooling systems rely on the main radiator for coolant storage and circulation. However, with the improvement of motorcycle performance, the main radiator alone may not be able to handle the demands of coolant temperature fluctuations and pressure changes. Therefore, the auxiliary adjustment function of the auxiliary radiator has gradually become an important design feature for improving the stability of the cooling system. However, the current layout design of the auxiliary radiator often requires inspection holes to be made in the body shell, which affects both aesthetics and reduces the structural integrity of the body shell. Utility Model Content

The auxiliary water tank is mounted on the frame and includes a tank body and a water level inspection window formed on the surface of the tank body. The side body shell covers at least a portion of the auxiliary water tank, and includes a lower edge forming an open gap between the lower edge and the periphery of the auxiliary water tank body, through which the water level inspection window can be directly observed.

[0004] In one embodiment, the motorcycle further includes a middle body shell, wherein the side body shell is connected to one side of the middle body shell, and the middle body shell covers at least a portion of the auxiliary water tank.

[0005] In one embodiment, the frame includes two rear extension tubes, with the auxiliary water tank connected to one of the rear extension tubes.

[0006] In one embodiment, the frame further includes a bracket that secures the rear extension pipe, and the auxiliary water tank is fixed to the bracket.

[0007] In one embodiment, the auxiliary water tank includes a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion, and the bracket includes a first locking portion and a second locking portion. The first connecting portion is locked to the first locking portion, and the second connecting portion is locked to the second locking portion.

[0008] In one embodiment, the bracket includes a first bracket component, a second bracket component, and a third bracket component. The first bracket component is disposed at one end of the third bracket component, and the second bracket component is disposed at the other end of the third bracket component. The rear extension tube is welded to one end of the first bracket component, and a first locking portion is formed at the other end of the first bracket component. The rear extension tube is welded to one end of the second bracket component, and a second locking portion is formed at the other end of the second bracket component.

[0009] In one embodiment, the auxiliary water tank body includes a side surface and a rear surface, the side surface facing the side body, the rear surface connecting to the side surface, and the water level inspection window disposed on the rear surface.

[0010] In one embodiment, the motorcycle also includes a rear storage box connected to the frame, wherein the auxiliary water tank partially overlaps with the rear storage box on one side of the projected plane.

[0011] In one embodiment, the motorcycle further includes a main water tank, an engine, and a coolant, wherein the main water tank is connected to the engine, the coolant is adapted to circulate between the main water tank and the engine, and the auxiliary water tank is adapted to regulate the coolant.

[0012] In one embodiment, the motorcycle also includes an air filter, wherein the auxiliary water tank is located in front of the air filter.

[0013] In an embodiment of this invention, an open gap is formed between the lower edge of the motorcycle body shell and the perimeter of the auxiliary water tank, allowing direct visual observation of the water level inspection window. Motorcycles using this embodiment of the invention can check the water level in the auxiliary water tank without opening a hole in the body shell.
