Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To guard a step by a step guard to prevent the undesired derricking of the step. SOLUTION: A pillion step 21 is derrickably mounted on a step holder 20, and the step guard 43 formed by looping a wire material is mounted on a step protector 42 extending to a rear end part of the step holder 20 through a dynamic damper. The step guard 43 is formed as an outwardly-projecting part outwardly bent and projected at an upper part of the step protector 42 and covers the whole length of the pillion step 21 in an accommodating state. A rear part of the step guard 43 is formed into an inwardly-oriented part 46, and entered to an inner part of the muffler to be superposed thereon in a plane view.

The main body of the step guard 43 forms an outward projecting portion which is bent above the step protector 42 toward the outside of the vehicle body and projects. The projecting amount of the step guard 43 corresponds to that of the pillion step 21 in the stored state, as shown in FIG. It covers only part of the top surface over the entire length. Further, the rear part of the step guard 43 forms an inward directing part 46 that bends inward of the vehicle body, and the rear end part of the inward directing part 46 is, in plan view in FIG.
It goes under the muffler 14.

As shown in FIG. 5, the passenger 37 straddles the overhanging portion 9 of the rear cowl 7 and lowers the leg 38 sufficiently far below the muffler 14 and the outside of the muffler 49 located inside thereof, so that the passenger 38 is lower than the overhanging portion 9. The foot 39 can be placed on the pillion step 21 in a use state in which the tip projects further outward for a long time. At this time, since the upper part of the step guard 43 forms an outward protruding portion, the foot 39 can be positioned further outward.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. Since the step guard 43 is arranged on the inside of the vehicle body of the pillion step 21 and the outward projecting part is provided on the upper part thereof, when the pillion step 21 is put in the housed state, the outer projecting part covers the entire length of the pillion step 21 and carelessly pillions. You can guard against step 21 from happening. In addition, in the use state, the outer protruding portion can position the occupant's foot 39 on the pillion step 21 so as to be located further outward.

In addition, since the inward directing portion 46 is provided at the rear of the step guard 43 so as to enter and overlap below the muffler cover 14 which is an exhaust system component in plan view, it is unnecessary to provide the step guard. It is possible not to provide the protruding end. Furthermore, since the step guard 43 is formed by looping the linear member, the step guard 4
3 can be easily formed, the degree of freedom in shape can be increased, and the weight can be reduced.

Further, since the step guard 43 is floatingly supported to the step holder 20 side, which is a step supporting member, via the dynamic damper 47, the dynamic damper 47 is supported by the step holder 20 with respect to the step holder 20.
The vibration of the foot 39 to prevent vibration transmission to the foot 39, and the step guard 43 prevents the pillion step 21 from moving.
The vibration transmission from the side is further reduced, and the vibration transmission to the foot 39 can be reduced.
