[0015] The front structure for a saddle-type vehicle according to the present invention comprises a steering system provided with a lower bridge, an upper bridge located above the lower bridge, and a handlebar; a head tube for rotatably mounting the steering system; a headlight arranged between the upper and lower bridges; a master brake cylinder mounted on the handlebar; and a brake hose extending from the master brake cylinder towards one side of the head tube. A fixing element for securing the brake hose is located behind the headlight on one side of a lower surface of the upper bridge.
[0016] The brake hose, which is installed behind the headlight using the fixing element on the side of the lower surface of the upper bridge, is concealed by the headlight and is barely visible from the outside. This makes it possible to prevent the brake hose from being noticeable, resulting in an improved appearance.
[0017] In the present invention, the fixing element can comprise a connecting section for bending a guide path of the brake hose at an angle of 180° or less. Because the guide path of the brake hose can be bent by the connecting section at a position on the side of the lower surface of the upper bridge, the brake hose can be easily guided to accommodate a rotational movement of the steering system.
[0018] In the present invention, the connecting section can be configured to reverse the guidance path of the brake hose, which extends from the master brake cylinder in both a left and a right direction and is connected to the connecting section. In this structure, the connecting section allows the direction of the brake hose's guidance path to be reversed. This can improve the flexibility of the brake hose's guidance path.
[0019] Furthermore, in the present invention, the master brake cylinder is arranged on the right side of the head tube, and the fixing element is arranged on the left side of the head tube. The brake hose, which extends from the master brake cylinder to the left side in such a way that it connects to the connecting section, can be routed such that it projects to the rear right from the connecting section while running in front of the head tube. In this configuration, the brake hose is routed such that it extends from the master brake cylinder on the right side of the head tube to the fixing element on the left side of the head tube and has a reversed direction to the rear right at the connecting section while running in front of the head tube. Despite the configuration in which the master brake cylinder is arranged on the right side of the head tube, the brake hose can be routed to the rear right while running in front of the head tube.This makes it possible to easily cope with a bend in the brake hose during a turning operation of the steering system.
[0020] In the present invention, the fixing element can be arranged in front of the head tube, and the connecting section can guide the brake hose, which projects from the connecting section, towards the side of the head tube. This structure allows the brake hose to run through the periphery of the head tube. This makes it easy to accommodate the bending of the brake hose during the rotation of the steering system.
[0021] In the present invention, a pair of left and right main frames extending rearward from the head tube, and a subframe for connecting the main frames and the head tube are provided. The brake hose, which projects from the connecting section such that it is guided to the right side while running in front of the head tube, can be routed to the inside of a vehicle body while passing through a space defined by the head tube, the main frames, and the subframe. In this structure, the use of the space defined by the head tube, the main frames, and the subframes allows for the routing of the brake hose.
[0022] The present invention provides a brake control / regulating device for controlling / regulating the hydraulic pressure of a brake system according to the hydraulic pressure during operation of the master brake cylinder behind the cylinder head. The brake control / regulating device comprises an input section to which the brake hose is connected. The input section can be located on the right side of the vehicle body. Given the design, since the brake hose, which is routed to the rear right while running in front of the cylinder head, comes close to the input section on the right side of the vehicle body, it is likely that the brake hose can be easily connected to the brake control / regulating device.
[0023] In the present invention, the handle is held by a handle holder provided on an upper surface of the upper bridge. The handle holder can overlap with the fixing element in a top view. In the structure, the fixing element concealed by the handle holder is barely visible, resulting in an improved appearance.
[0024] In this configuration, a meter anchor can be provided for holding a meter on the lower surface of the upper bridge, and the fixing element can be attached to the meter anchor. With this structure, the use of the meter anchor allows the fixing element to be attached to the side of the lower surface of the upper bridge.
