Winker mounting structure for a motorcycle.

Abstract

[Problem] To provide a winker mounting structure that provides enhanced exterior appearance and visibility and facilitates painting of a base member. [Solution] A winker unit 70 having a winker lens 72 mounted to a base plate 71 is mounted to either side surface of a front cover 9. Since the base plate 71 is of a type separate from the front cover 9, masking or the like becomes unnecessary even when painting only the surrounding portion of the winker lens 72 in a different painting color in order to enhance the visibility or the like. A substantially recess-like mounting portion is formed in the front cover that is integrally formed, and by mounting the base plate 71 so as to be received in the mounting portion, a surface that is substantially integral with the front cover 9 is formed. A plurality of bosses each having a screw hole for fixing and supporting the base plate 71 onto the mounting portion are provided on the back side of the base plate 71, with a dowel for determining the mounting position of the base plate 71 being provided near a boss located toward the front of the body.
