Abstract

Object: To provide a V-type internal combustion engine for a motorcycle, having a front bank and a rear bank, which is capable of compactly forming a rear portion of a crank case and a mission case portion continuous thereto without any interference with a lubricating oil pump and a cooling water pump.
Solving Means: A lubricating oil pump 57 for supplying oil to portions to be lubricated of a front bank 41 and a rear bank 42, and a cooling water pump 62 for supplying cooling water to water jackets 241 and 242 of the front and rear banks 41 and 42 are provided in a crank case 21 in such a manner as to be laterally disposed in front of and over a crank shaft 15.
