Effects of the invention

The front structure of a saddle-type vehicle according to the present invention includes: a steering system including a bottom axle, a top axle disposed above the bottom axle, and a handle; a front vertical pipe for rotatably supporting the steering system; a headlamp arranged between the top bridge and the bottom bridge; a master cylinder supported by the handle; and a brake hose extending from the master cylinder toward the front stand pipe side, wherein a fixing member for fixing the brake hose is attached to the lower surface side of the top bridge at the rear of the headlight.

Thus, the brake hose attached to the lower surface side of the top bridge at the rear of the headlight by the fixing member is shielded by the headlight and is hard to be seen from the outside. Therefore, the brake hose can be prevented from being conspicuous, and the appearance can be improved.

In the above invention, the fixing member may include a joint portion that bends a wiring path of the brake hose at an angle of 180 ° or less. According to this configuration, since the joint portion can bend the routing path of the brake hose at the position on the lower surface side of the top bridge, the brake hose can be easily routed in accordance with the turning operation of the steering system.

In the above invention, the joint may change a wiring path of the brake hose extending from the master cylinder to one of left and right sides and connected to the joint to a direction extending to the other of left and right sides. According to this configuration, since the wiring path of the brake hose can be reversed in the left-right direction by the joint portion, the degree of freedom of the wiring path of the brake hose can be increased.

In the above invention, the brake master cylinder may be disposed on the right side with respect to the front seat pipe, the fixing member may be disposed on the left side with respect to the front seat pipe, and the brake hose extending leftward from the brake master cylinder and connected to the joint portion may be routed rightward through the front of the front seat pipe from the joint portion.

Therefore, even in a configuration in which the master cylinder is disposed on the right side of the front vertical pipe, the brake hose can be routed to the right and rear side through the front of the front vertical pipe, and it is easy to cope with the deflection of the brake hose when the steering system is operated to turn.

In the above invention, the fixing member may be disposed in front of the front seat pipe, and the joint may direct the brake hose coming out of the joint to the front seat pipe side. According to this configuration, the brake hose can be passed around the front riser pipe, and the flexure of the brake hose during the turning operation of the steering system can be easily coped with.

In addition, in the above invention, the following may be provided: a pair of left and right main frames extending rearward from the front vertical pipe; and a sub-frame connecting the main frame and the front riser, wherein a brake hose extending from the joint portion and passing in front of the front riser to be wired to the right side is wired to the inside of the vehicle body through a space defined by the front riser, the main frame, and the sub-frame. According to this structure, the brake hose can be guided by the space defined by the front riser, the main frame, and the sub-frame.

In the above invention, the brake control device for controlling the hydraulic pressure of the brake device in accordance with the hydraulic pressure generated by the operation of the master cylinder may be provided at a position rearward of the front seat pipe, and the brake control device may include an input unit connected to the brake hose, and the input unit may be disposed on the right side of the vehicle body. According to this configuration, since the brake hose routed to the right rear side through the front of the front seat pipe is close to the input portion on the right side of the vehicle body, the brake hose and the brake control device can be easily connected.

In the above invention, the handle may be supported by a handle bracket provided on an upper surface of the top bridge, and the handle bracket may overlap the fixing member in a plan view. According to this configuration, the fixing member is hidden from view by the handle holder, and therefore the appearance is excellent.

In the above invention, a meter stay for supporting a meter may be provided on a lower surface of the top bridge, and the fixing member may be attached to the meter stay. According to this configuration, the fixing member can be attached to the lower surface side of the top bridge by the instrument stay.

The headlamp 40 can be rotated about the headlamp support shaft 74 by releasing the lower fixing by the lower fixing portion (see paragraph 0027). This allows the headlamp 40 to be rotated about the headlamp support shaft 74 to finely adjust the angle of the headlamp 40, thereby facilitating adjustment of the optical axis of the headlamp 40.

As shown in fig. 2 and 4, the windshield 43 is supported by a pair of left and right windshield stays 75 and 75 positioned above the headlight 40.

The left and right windshield stays 75 and 75 are fixed to left and right end portions of the headlamp support shaft 74, respectively. The windshield stays 75 and 75 extend forward from the headlight support shaft 74, and are coupled to the lower rear surface of the windshield 43 by bolts.

Referring to fig. 5, 6, and 8, a harness 73 (fig. 8) is connected to the harness connection portion 42H of the meter unit 42. The meter unit 42 is electrically connected to a control device (not shown) of the motorcycle 1 via a harness 73.

The wire harness 73 includes a connector portion 73b (other member) larger than the linear member 73a at an end of the linear member 73a drawn out from the control device, and the connector portion 73b and the wire harness connection portion 42H are connected to each other.

The connector portion 73b is connected by inserting the harness connection portion 42H from the front lower side. As shown in fig. 6, the connector portion 73b is a direction substantially orthogonal to the back surface of the meter unit 42 when viewed from the side with respect to the connection direction a (insertion direction) of the harness connection portion 42H.

In the present embodiment, the fixing of the back surface of the upper portion of the meter unit 42 is only the upper fixing portion 42U on the right side, and the harness connection portion 42H is provided on the left side of the back surface of the upper portion of the meter unit 42. Therefore, the fixing strength of the meter unit 42 can be secured by the upper fixing portion 42U, and the connector portion 73b can be provided on the left side of the back surface of the meter unit 42.

Referring to fig. 2, 4, 6, and 8, the wall portion 40f of the connection portion 40e of the headlamp 40 and the headlamp support shaft 74 are positioned forward and downward of the connector portion 73b and overlap the connector portion 73b in the connection direction a. Thus, the coupling portion 40e and the headlamp support shaft 74 prevent the connector portion 73b from being pulled out, and therefore, the connector portion 73b can be prevented from being pulled out.

Further, the windshield stay 75 on the right covers the connector portion 73b from the front. Therefore, the connector portion 73b can be protected by the windshield stay 75.

Next, a fixing structure of the brake hose 59 will be explained.

Fig. 9 is a view of the wiring state of the brake hose 59 as viewed from above. Fig. 10 is a view of the wiring state of the brake hose 59 as viewed from below.

Referring to fig. 1, 9, and 10, the brake control device 60 of the brake device 52 is disposed rearward of the cylinder portion 32 and above the rear portion of the crankcase 31. The brake control device 60 is a box-shaped member that is long in the vehicle width direction, and is provided between the rear portions of the left and right

main frames

16, 16.

As shown in fig. 9 and 10, the brake hose 59 includes: an input-side brake hose 80 that connects the master cylinder 56 and the brake control device 60; and an output side brake hose 81 connecting the brake control device 60 and the brake caliper 58 on the front wheel 2 side.

The hydraulic pressure input to the master cylinder 56 is input to the brake control device 60 via the input-side brake hose 80. The hydraulic pressure output from the brake control device 60 is transmitted to the brake caliper 58 via the output side brake hose 81.

The brake control device 60 includes an input portion 60a connected to a downstream end of the input-side brake hose 80 on the upper surface. The brake control device 60 further includes an output portion 60b connected to an upstream end of the output side brake hose 81 on the upper surface.

The input unit 60a and the output unit 60b are located on the right side with respect to a center line C extending in the front-rear direction at the center of the vehicle width. That is, the input unit 60a and the output unit 60b are disposed toward the right side of the vehicle body.

Further, the braking device 52 includes: a rear brake caliper 82 (fig. 1) that brakes the rear wheel 3; a rear brake master cylinder (not shown) to which a braking operation of an occupant is input; and a rear brake hose 83 (fig. 9) connecting the rear master cylinder and the rear brake caliper 82. The brake control device 60 is connected to a middle portion of the rear brake hose 83.

The rear master cylinder, the rear brake hose 83, and the rear brake caliper 82 are disposed on the right side of the vehicle body. Specifically, the rear caliper 82 is disposed on the right side of the rear wheel 3. The rear brake hose 83 is disposed along an arm portion located on the right side of the rear wheel 3 at the swing arm 13.

The rear brake hose 83 includes: an input side brake hose 83a connecting the rear master cylinder and the brake control device 60; and an output side brake hose 83b connecting the brake control device 60 and the rear caliper 82.

A rear input portion 60c that connects the downstream end of the input-side brake hose 83a to the brake control device 60, and a rear output portion 60d that connects the upstream end of the output-side brake hose 83b to the brake control device 60 are disposed on the right side of the vehicle body.

The brake device 52 includes a fixing member 85 for fixing the input-side brake hose 80 to the vehicle body side in the middle of the input-side brake hose 80 on the front wheel 2 side. The fixing member 85 is fixed to the lower surface side of the top bridge 25.

Fig. 11 is a view of the fixed state of the input-side brake hose 80 by the fixing member 85 as viewed from above. In fig. 11, the handle 27, the handle holder 53, and the like are not shown, and the meter stay 61 and the brake master cylinder 56 are shown by imaginary lines.

The fixing member 85 includes: a block-shaped fixing piece 86; an inlet pipe 87 extending rightward from the fixing piece 86; and an outlet pipe 88 extending rightward from the fixing piece 86 behind the inlet pipe 87.

The fixing piece 86 includes a passage 89 therein for communicating the inlet pipe 87 and the outlet pipe 88. The fixing piece 86 further includes a fixing hole 90 vertically penetrating the fixing piece 86.

The fixing member 85 is formed of a material such as a metal material having higher rigidity than the input side brake hose 80 so as to be able to restrict the routing direction of the input side brake hose 80.

The fixing member 85 is disposed on the left side of the front seat pipe 15 located at the vehicle width center, and is disposed forward of the front seat pipe 15. As shown in fig. 4 and 11, the fixing member 85 is disposed between the left and right

front forks

24, 24 at the rear of the upper portion of the headlamp 40.

Specifically, the fixing member 85 is formed in a rectangular parallelepiped shape elongated in the front-rear direction, and is disposed with the front surface 85a inclined toward the front left side in a plan view.

The inlet pipe 87 extends from the right side surface of the fixing plate 86 to the right side toward the master cylinder 56 side, and extends to the center of the vehicle width in front of the front seat pipe 15. The inlet pipe 87 is not directed in the right lateral direction, but extends slightly obliquely to the right front.

The outlet pipe 88 extends rightward and rearward from the rear surface of the fixing piece 86. The outlet pipe 88 extends substantially perpendicularly to the rear surface of the fixing piece 86, bends to extend rightward after extending toward the front stand pipe 15, and extends rightward in front of the front stand pipe 15. The outlet pipe 88 extends from the fixing piece 86 to the center of the vehicle width. The outlet pipe 88 does not extend toward the right lateral direction, but extends slightly obliquely toward the right rear.

The passage 89 is formed in an L shape so as to connect the inlet pipe 87 and the outlet pipe 88. The passage 89 is provided at the rear of the fixed member 85.

The fixing hole 90 is provided in the front portion of the fixing member 85 in front of the passage 89. A fixing member fixing bolt 90a (fig. 4) is inserted into the fixing hole 90 from below.

As shown in fig. 4 and 5, a hole portion 65a to which a fixing member fixing bolt 90a is fastened is provided at a left end portion of a lower surface of the vehicle body attachment portion 65 of the meter stay 61.

The fixing member 85 is fastened to the lower surface of the vehicle body mounting portion 65 of the meter stay 61 by a fixing member fixing bolt 90 a. That is, the fixing member 85 is fixed to the lower surface of the top bridge 25 via the meter stay 61.

Referring to fig. 9 and 11, the input-side brake hose 80 includes: a 1 st input side brake hose 91 connecting the brake master cylinder 56 and the inlet pipe 87 of the fixing member 85; and a 2 nd input side brake hose 92 connecting the outlet pipe 88 of the fixing member 85 and the input portion 60a of the brake control device 60.

The 1 st input side brake hose 91 and the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 are connected by the inlet pipe 87, the passage 89, and the outlet pipe 88. That is, the inlet pipe 87, the passage 89, and the outlet pipe 88 constitute a joint 93 connecting the 1 st input side brake hose 91 and the 2 nd input side brake hose 92.

Referring to fig. 4 and 11, the 1 st input side brake hose 91 of the brake hose 59 extends leftward (leftward and rightward) and downward from the brake master cylinder 56 located rightward with respect to the front seat pipe 15 and upward with respect to the top bridge 25, and is connected to the inlet pipe 87 through the front of the right front fork 24 and the front seat pipe 15.

The 2 nd input side brake hose 92 extends rightward (the other of the left and right sides) and rearward and downward from the outlet pipe 88 located on the left side with respect to the front riser pipe 15 and located below the top bridge 25.

Specifically, the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 extends rearward and downward from the outlet pipe 88 through the front of the front stand pipe 15 and the right side direction of the front stand pipe 15. Here, the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 extends rearward and downward through a space 94 formed between the front stem 15 and the right front fork 24 and between the top bridge 25 and the bottom bridge 26.

The 2 nd input side brake hose 92 that has passed through the space 94 enters the inside of the vehicle body frame 10 through the right side space S of the vehicle body frame 10, extends rearward along the inner surface of the right side main frame 16, and is connected to the input portion 60a of the brake control device 60.

That is, the wiring path of the input side brake hose 80 extends leftward beyond the center line C from the master cylinder 56, reverses the left-right direction at the joint portion 93 of the fixing member 85, extends rightward beyond the center line C again, passes through the space 94 and the right-side space S, and extends rearward toward the input portion 60 a.

An axis 87a of the base end of the inlet pipe 87 intersects an axis 88a of the base end of the outlet pipe 88 at a substantially right angle. Thereby, in the joint portion 93, the wiring path of the input side brake hose 80 is bent at an angle of substantially 90 °. That is, the joint 93 bends the wiring path of the input side brake hose 80 at an angle of 180 ° or less. Here, in order to reverse the wiring path of the input side brake hose 80 to the right and left, the joint 93 may bend the wiring path of the input side brake hose 80 in a range of approximately 90 ° to 180 °.

The outlet pipe 88 is directed to the right rear with the wiring path of the input side brake hose 80 toward the front riser 15 side.

As shown in fig. 11, in a state where the steering system 12 is not steered right and left, the fixing member 85 restricts the wiring path of the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 so that the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 passes through the space 94 without contacting the front stem 15 and the front fork 24 on the right side.

In the present embodiment, since the fixing member 85 is provided on the lower surface side close to the front seat pipe 15 and the top bridge 25 of the front fork 24, the wiring path can be restricted with high accuracy so that the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 passes through the space 94 appropriately.

Further, since the input-side brake hose 80 extending from the right brake master cylinder 56 is folded back and inverted at the fixing member 85 positioned on the left side of the front seat pipe 15 and extends to the right side, the input-side brake hose 80 (2 nd input-side brake hose 92) can be passed through the front of the front seat pipe 15 to the right side in a direction substantially orthogonal to the center line C. Therefore, the input-side brake hose 80 can be gently bent backward and pass through the space 94.

If the steering system 12 is steered, the fixed member 85 rotates integrally with the top bridge 25, and the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 flexes.

In a state where the steering system 12 is steered to the left, the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 is bent like a 2 nd input side brake hose 92L shown by an imaginary line, approaching the front stand pipe 15.

In a state where the steering system 12 is steered to the right, the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 is bent like a 2 nd input side brake hose 92R shown by an imaginary line, approaching the right front fork 24.

In the present embodiment, in a state where the steering system 12 is not steered, the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 is restricted in the wiring path by the fixing member 85 so as to pass through a substantially intermediate portion between the front stem 15 and the right front fork 24. Thus, even in a state where the steering system 12 is steered left and right, the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 can be suppressed from strongly contacting the members around the 2 nd input side brake hose 92. Therefore, the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 can be suppressed from becoming a steering resistance of the steering system 12, and the steering performance is excellent.

Since the fixing member 85 is attached to the lower surface side of the top bridge 25 at the rear of the headlight 40, the input-side brake hose 80 and the fixing member 85, whose wiring paths are restricted by the fixing member 85, are shielded from the outside by the headlight 40 and the top bridge 25. Therefore, the input side brake hose 80 and the fixing member 85 can be prevented from being conspicuous, and the motorcycle 1 can be provided with good appearance.

Further, the wiring direction of the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 can be guided by the space S formed in the right portion of the front end portion of the vehicle frame 10. The 2 nd input side brake hose 92 that has passed through the space S extends rearward toward the brake control device 60 and is connected to the input portion 60a located on the vehicle body right side. Therefore, the wiring path of the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 can be shortened.

Further, since the rear brake hose 83 connected to the rear caliper 82 on the right side of the vehicle body is also routed on the right side of the vehicle body, the routing path of the rear brake hose 83 can be shortened.

Further, since the input unit 60a, the output unit 60b, the rear input unit 60c, and the rear output unit 60d of the brake control device 60 are collectively disposed on the right side of the vehicle body, the structure of the brake control device 60 can be simplified.

A pair of brake disks 57 and brake calipers 58 shown in fig. 1 are provided on the left and right of the front wheel 2.

As shown in fig. 10, the output side brake hose 81 is routed from the output portion 60b of the brake control device 60 forward along the right main frame 16, branched left and right below the bottom bridge 26, and then extended downward and connected to the left and

right brake calipers

58, 58.

As shown in fig. 3, when viewed from above, the front portion of the left portion of the handle bracket 53 overlaps the fixing member 85 from above. In particular, when the steering system 12 is viewed from the occupant side of the seat 14, the handle bracket 53 and the fixing member 85 are greatly overlapped. Therefore, the fixing member 85 can be shielded by the handle holder 53, and the appearance is excellent.

As described above, according to the embodiment to which the present invention is applied, the motorcycle 1 includes the meter unit 42 provided at the front portion and the meter stay 61 supporting the meter unit 42 to the vehicle body, and the meter stay 61 is fastened to the meter unit 42 by the

lower fixing portions

42L and 42R provided at the lower portion of the back surface of the meter unit 42 and the upper fixing portion 42U provided at the upper portion of the back surface of the meter unit 42.

According to this configuration, the meter stay 61 and the meter unit 42 can be fixed by the plurality of vertically separated fixing portions by the

lower fixing portions

42L and 42R provided at the lower portion of the back surface of the meter unit 42 and the upper fixing portion 42U provided at the upper portion of the back surface of the meter unit 42. Therefore, the meter unit 42 can be firmly supported with a simple structure. Further, since a space can be secured on the left and right sides of the upper fixing portion 42U, another member (the wire harness 73) can be disposed in the space.

Further, the meter stay 61 and the meter unit 42 can be fixed by a plurality of fixing portions separated in the left-right direction and in the up-down direction by the left and right

lower fixing portions

42L, 42R disposed on the back surface of the meter unit 42 and the upper fixing portion 42U disposed separated in the up-down direction from the

lower fixing portions

42L, 42R. Therefore, the meter unit 42 can be firmly supported with a simple structure. Since the upper fixing portion 42U is a single point and does not occupy a large space, a space for disposing other components can be secured on the rear surface of the meter unit 42.

The

lower fixing portions

42L and 42R are provided at two points on the right and left of the back surface of the meter unit 42, and the upper fixing portion 42U is provided at one point on the back surface. According to this configuration, the instrument unit 42 can be firmly supported with a simple structure by the

lower fixing portions

42L and 42R arranged at two left and right points and the upper fixing portion 42U separated upward from the

lower fixing portions

42L and 42R. Further, since the upper fixing portion 42U is provided at one point on the rear surface, a space for disposing other components can be secured above the rear surface of the meter unit 42.

The upper fixing portions 42U provided at one point are provided on one of the left and right sides at the upper portion of the rear surface, and the harness connecting portions 42H connected to the harnesses 73 are provided on the other of the left and right sides at the upper portion where the upper fixing portions 42U are provided. Thus, the meter unit 42 can be firmly supported by the upper left and right fixing portions 42U on the upper back surface of the meter unit 42, and the harness connection portion 42H can be efficiently provided by the space on the upper left and right sides on the upper back surface of the meter unit 42.

The meter stay 61 includes a headlight support portion 71 that supports the headlight 40 at a position between

lower fixing portions

42L and 42R provided at least two points on the left and right of the rear surface of the meter unit 42. Thus, the headlamp support portion 71 can be efficiently provided by the space between the left and right

lower fixing portions

42L, 42R.

The headlight support portion 71 pivotally supports the headlight 40. With this configuration, the headlight 40 can be turned around the headlight support portion 71 as an axis, and the optical axis of the headlight 40 can be easily adjusted.

The harness 73 includes a connector portion 73b connected to the harness connection portion 42H, and the headlight 40 overlaps the connector portion 73b in the connection direction a of the connector portion 73b with respect to the harness connection portion 42H. This can prevent the headlight 40 from interfering with the movement of the connector portion 73b, and can prevent the connector portion 73b from being pulled out of the harness connection portion 42H by the headlight 40.

The connector portion 73b is covered from the front by a windshield stay 75 that supports the windshield 43. Thus, the connector portion 73b can be protected by the windshield stay 75 with a simple structure.

Further, the meter stay 61 includes: a center portion 66 located at the left and right center portions of the back surface of the meter unit 42; a left arm portion 67 extending from the center portion 66 and fixed to the left lower fixing portion 42L; a right arm portion 68 extending from the center portion 66 and fixed to the right lower fixing portion 42R; and an upper arm portion 69 extending from the central portion 66 and fixed to the upper fixing portion 42U. Thus, in the meter stay 61, the left arm portion 67, the right arm portion 68, and the upper arm portion 69 extend leftward and rightward from the central portion 66. Therefore, the volume of meter stay 61 can be reduced, and meter stay 61 can be made lightweight.

Further, the apparatus comprises: a pair of left and right

front forks

24, 24 for supporting the front wheel 2; a bottom bridge 26 that connects the

front forks

24, 24 to each other; and a top bridge 25 that connects the

front forks

24, 24 to the left and right above the bottom bridge 26, and the meter stay 61 is attached to the top bridge 25. Thus, the meter stay 61 can be fixed to the vehicle body side with a simple structure by the top bridge 25.

Further, according to an embodiment to which the present invention is applied, the motorcycle 1 includes: a steering system 12 including a bottom bridge 26, a top bridge 25 provided above the bottom bridge 26, and a handlebar 27; a front stand pipe 15 that rotatably supports the steering system 12; a headlight 40 disposed between the top bridge 25 and the bottom bridge 26; a master cylinder 56 supported by the handle 27; and a brake hose 59 extending from the master cylinder 56 toward the front stem 15, wherein a fixing member 85 for fixing the brake hose 59 is attached to the lower surface of the head bridge 25 behind the headlight 40.

Thus, the brake hose 59 attached to the lower surface side of the head bridge 25 behind the headlight 40 via the fixing member 85 is shielded by the headlight 40 and is hard to be seen from the outside. Therefore, the brake hose 59 can be prevented from being conspicuous, and the appearance can be improved. In the present embodiment, the brake hose 59 is shielded by the headlight 40, but the brake hose 59 may be shielded from the outside by the top bridge 25 and the headlight 40.

The fixing member 85 is provided with a joint portion 93 that bends the wiring path of the brake hose 59 at an angle of 180 ° or less. Thus, the joint 93 can bend the routing path of the brake hose 59 at the position on the lower surface side of the top bridge 25, and therefore the brake hose 59 can be easily routed in accordance with the turning operation of the steering system 12.

The joint 93 changes the wiring path of the brake hose 59 extending from the master cylinder 56 to one of the left and right sides and connected to the joint 93 to a direction extending to the other of the left and right sides. Thus, the wiring path of the brake hose 59 can be reversed in the left-right direction by the joint 93, and thus the degree of freedom of the wiring path of the brake hose 59 can be increased.

The master cylinder 56 is disposed on the right side with respect to the front seat pipe 15, the fixing member 85 is disposed on the left side with respect to the front seat pipe 15, and the brake hose 59 extending leftward from the master cylinder 56 and connected to the joint portion 93 extends from the joint portion 93 and is routed rightward through the front of the front seat pipe 15. Thus, the brake hose 59 extends from the right brake master cylinder 56 of the front stand pipe 15 to the left fixing member 85 of the front stand pipe 15, changes its direction at the joint portion 93, and is routed to the right and rear through the front of the front stand pipe 15. Therefore, even with the configuration in which the master cylinder 56 is disposed on the right side of the front seat pipe 15, the brake hose 59 can be routed to the right and rear side through the front of the front seat pipe 15, and it is easy to cope with the deflection of the brake hose 59 when the steering system 12 is operated to turn.

The fixing member 85 is disposed in front of the front seat pipe 15, and the joint 93 directs the brake hose 59 coming out of the joint 93 to the front seat pipe 15 side. This allows the brake hose 59 to pass around the front seat pipe 15, and facilitates handling of the brake hose 59 when the steering system 12 is turned.

Further, a pair of left and right

main frames

16, 16 extending rearward from the front head pipe 15 and

sub-frames

17, 17 connecting the

main frames

16, 16 and the front head pipe 15 are provided, and the brake hose 59 coming out from the joint portion 93 and routed to the right side through the front of the front head pipe 15 is routed to the inside of the vehicle body through a space S defined by the front head pipe 15, the main frames 16, and the sub-frames 17. Thereby, the brake hose 59 can be guided by the space S defined by the front stand pipe 15, the main frame 16, and the sub-frame 17.

A brake control device 60 that controls the hydraulic pressure of the brake device 52 in accordance with the hydraulic pressure generated by the operation of the master cylinder 56 is provided at a position rearward of the front seat pipe 15, the brake control device 60 includes an input portion 60a connected to the brake hose 59, and the input portion 60a is disposed on the right side of the vehicle body. Thus, the brake hose 59 routed to the right rear side through the front of the front seat pipe 15 is close to the input portion 60a on the right side of the vehicle body, so that the brake hose 59 and the brake control device 60 can be easily connected, and the routing path can be shortened.

The handle 27 is supported by a handle holder 53 provided on the upper surface of the top bridge 25, and the handle holder 53 overlaps the fixing member 85 in a plan view. Thus, the fixing member 85 is hidden from view by the handle holder 53, and therefore, the appearance is excellent.

Further, a meter stay 61 that supports the meter unit 42 is provided on the lower surface of the top bridge 25, and the fixing member 85 is attached to the meter stay 61. Thus, the fixing member 85 can be attached to the lower surface side of the top bridge 25 by the meter stay 61.

The above embodiment shows an embodiment to which the present invention is applied, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.

In the above embodiment, the

lower fixing portions

42L and 42R are provided at least two points on the right and left of the back surface of the meter unit 42, and the upper fixing portion 42U is provided at one point on the back surface, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the lower fixing portion 42R may be provided at one point on the rear surface of the meter unit 42, the

The lower fixing portion may be provided with at least two points in the left-right range of the lower portion of the back surface of the meter unit 42, or may be provided with a plurality of points of three or more points.

In the above-described embodiment, the fixing member 85 is fixed to the lower surface of the top bridge 25 via the meter stay 61, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the fixing member 85 may be directly fastened to the lower surface of the top bridge 25. The member interposed between the fixing member 85 and the top bridge 25 is not limited to the meter stay 61, and the fixing member 85 may be attached to a stay member (e.g., an electrical component stay) of a support member.

In the above embodiment, the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 has been described as being connected to the input portion 60a of the brake control device 60, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 extending rightward from the fixing member 85 and passing through the space 94 may be configured to extend downward and be directly connected to the right caliper 58. In this case, the 2 nd input side brake hose 92 can be shortened. At least the right caliper may be provided for the left and
