Of the heel guard support portions 45, two on the front side are disposed above the step support portion 36, and one on the rear side is disposed behind and above the step support portion 36. The three heel guard supports 45 are spaced apart from each other on a single plane PL1 in side view. In other words, the three fastening members 30 of FIG. 2 are located on a single plane PL2 in a side view. Here, the plurality of heel guard support portions 45 may be located apart from each other on a single plane PL1 in a side view, and the outer surface of the heel guard 28 may be a curved surface. The portions 45 may be at positions offset (displaced) in the vehicle width direction. Details of the support structure of the heel guard 28 will be described later.

  The portion of the step stay 24L that overlaps the heel guard 28 in a side view is set to be thinner than the other portions. It is preferable that the guard holder 38 of the step stay 24L shown in FIG. 3 has the same shape as the outer peripheral edge of the heel guard 28 or a shape slightly smaller than the outer peripheral edge. This makes it difficult for the guard holding body 38 to be seen from the outside, and also allows the heel guard 28 to be supported at a position distant from the step support portion 36, so that the heel guard 28 can be supported with relatively low strength. In other words, the thickness of the guard holder 38 of the step stay 24L can be set to be thinner, and the weight of the step stay 24L can be reduced.

  The guard holding body 38 of the step stay 24L includes a first connecting portion 46 that connects the two front heel guard supports 45, the two front heel guard supports 45, and the rear heel guard support 45. And two second connecting portions 48 to be connected.

  The heel guard 28 shown in FIG. 2 has an outer surface 28a facing outward in the vehicle width direction, and the fastening member 30 is located inside the outer surface 28a in the vehicle width direction. Specifically, a third insertion hole 54 through which the fastening member 30 is inserted is formed at a position corresponding to the second insertion hole 44 (FIG. 3) of the step stay 24L in the heel guard 28. The third insertion hole 54 is formed in a recess 56 provided in the heel guard 28. The recess 56 is recessed inward in the vehicle width direction from the outer surface 28 a of the heel guard 28. As a result, as shown in FIG. 4, the top surface 30aa of the head 30a of the fastening member 30 is located inside the outer surface 28a of the heel guard 28 in the vehicle width direction. The fastening member 30 is desirably a hexagon socket head bolt rather than a hexagon bolt. Thereby, it is easy to suppress the height of the head portion 30a while suppressing the catch with the outside.

  A curved portion 58 that curves toward the inner side surface in the vehicle width direction opposite to the step stay 24L is formed on the peripheral edge portion of the heel guard 28 illustrated in FIG. The curved portion 58 is formed by bending the peripheral edge of the heel guard 28 toward the inner side, and is formed over the entire peripheral edge of the heel guard 28 except for the front end. The protruding edge 58a of the curved portion 58 inward in the vehicle width direction is set inside the vehicle width direction inner end 38a of the guard holder 38 of the step stay 24L. Thereby, as shown in FIG. 4, the step stay 24L is covered by the curved portion 58 from the circumferential direction. By providing such a curved portion 58, the strength of the heel guard 28 is improved and the vibration of the heel guard 28 is suppressed. Further, the curved portion 58 can prevent the step stay 24L from being stepped on from above by the rider's foot.

  Next, a support structure of the heel guard 28 will be described with reference to FIG. The support structure of the heel guard 28 is the same for the three heel guard support portions 45. As shown in the drawing, a cylindrical damper 60 having flanges at both ends and made of an elastic material such as rubber is attached to the second insertion hole 44 of the heel guard support portion 45 of the step stay 24L. A cylindrical collar 62 having a flange at one end (outside end) is inserted into the hollow hole 60a of the damper 60 from the outside.

  The fastening member 30 is inserted from the outside in the order of the third insertion hole 54 of the heel guard 28, the hollow hole 62 a of the collar 62, and the washer 64, and is fastened to the nut 66. As described above, the heel guard 28 is attached to the step stay 24L by the three fastening members 30 facing in the vehicle width direction via the damper 60 made of an elastic body. That is, the heel guard 28 is rubber-mounted at three points on the step stay 24L.

  In the present embodiment, a collar is provided at one end (outer end) of the collar 62, but a flange is provided at the other end (inner end) in place of the washer 64, and a collar is provided between the collar 62 and the heel guard 28. A washer may be provided. Further, a washer may be provided between the collar 62 and the heel guard 28 and between the collar 62 and the nut 66 using the collar 62 without the collar.

  FIG. 5 is a side view of the right step stay 24R as viewed from the outside (right side). Structures common to the left step stay 24L in the right step stay 24R are denoted by the same reference numerals as the left step stay 24L, and description thereof is omitted. There are the following two differences between the step stay 24L on the left side of FIG. 3 and the step stay 24R on the right side of FIG.

  The first difference is that the step stay 24L on the left side in FIG. 3 has a shift pedal support portion 40 formed in front of the step support portion 36, whereas the step stay 24R on the right side in FIG. The pedal support 40 is not provided, and a brake pedal support 68 is provided behind the step support 36. A shaft insertion hole 68a is formed in the brake pedal support 68 so as to face the vehicle width direction.

  The second difference is that in the right step stay 24R, two connecting portions between the reinforcing bar 50 and the upper and lower second connecting portions 48, 48 are provided with two brake supporting portions 69, 69 for supporting the rear wheel braking device. Is formed. A fourth insertion hole 70 is formed in each brake support 69 so as to face the vehicle width direction. As shown in FIG. 6, the brake pedal 72 is rotatably supported around a shaft 74 inserted into the shaft insertion hole 68a.

  On the other hand, the master cylinder 76 of the brake pedal 72 is supported on the right step stay 24R by two bolts 78 inserted into the two fourth insertion holes 70 (FIG. 5). Specifically, a bolt 78 is inserted into the fourth insertion hole 70 from the outside in the vehicle width direction, and is fastened to a screw hole 76 a provided in the master cylinder 76.

  The master cylinder 76 has a cylindrical shape extending substantially in the vertical direction, and has a lower end connected to the rear end of the brake pedal 72 by a screw body 80. A hydraulic tube 82 extends forward from a vertically intermediate portion of the master cylinder 76 and is connected to an oil tank 84. The oil tank 84 is disposed obliquely upward and forward in the vicinity of the step stay 24R, and is supported by the swing arm bracket 9 with bolts 85.

  When the rider depresses the brake pedal 72 with the right foot in the direction A1, the brake pedal 72 rotates around the shaft 74, and a force in the direction A2 acts on the master cylinder 76. As a result, the piston in the master cylinder 76 operates, and hydraulic pressure is generated. The generated hydraulic pressure applies a braking force to the rear wheel brake via a brake pipe (not shown). That is, the master cylinder 76 constitutes a part of a brake device that applies a braking force to the rear wheel brake, and the brake support 69 supports the master cylinder 76.

  A return spring 86 made of a tension coil spring is interposed between the brake pedal 72 and the right step stay 24R. When the rider releases his / her foot from the brake pedal 72, the brake pedal 72 The spring body 86 returns to the original position by the restoring force, and the hydraulic pressure in the master cylinder 76 is also reduced.

  The brake support 69 is covered by the heel guard 28 from the outside. Further, most of the master cylinder 76 and part of the hydraulic tube 82 are also covered by the heel guard 28 from the outside. The support structure of the heel guard 28 on the right step stay 24R is the same as the support structure of the left step stay 24L in FIG.

  Next, attachment of the step stays 24L and 24R to the vehicle body will be described. The rider's step 22, shift pedal 26, and heel guard 28 are attached to the left step stay 24L shown in FIG. 2, and the left sub-assembly is assembled. The left sub-assembly is attached to the swing arm bracket 9 with the bolt 25.

  The rider step 22 (FIG. 2), the brake pedal 72, the master cylinder 76, and the heel guard 28 are attached to the right step stay 24R shown in FIG. 6, and the right sub-assembly is assembled. The right sub-assembly is attached to the swing arm bracket 9 with the bolt 25. After assembling the left and right sub-assemblies, the sub-assemblies are attached to the vehicle body, so that the parts attached to the step stays 24L, 24R are also attached to the vehicle body at the same time as the step stays 24L, 24R are attached to the vehicle body. Therefore, the assembling work becomes easy.

  According to the above configuration, as shown in FIG. 4, the heel guard 28 is attached to the step stays 24L, 24R via the damper 60 made of an elastic body. Therefore, the vibration transmitted from the engine E of FIG. 1 to the step stays 24L and 24R via the body frame FR is absorbed by the damper 60. As a result, the vibration transmitted to the heel guard 28 is suppressed, so that the bodily sensation vibration around the rider's feet is reduced.

  If the damper 60 is provided between the body frame FR and the step stays 24L, 24R, there is a concern that the support rigidity of the step stays 24L, 24R to the body frame FR is reduced. However, in the above configuration, since the step stays 24L and 24R are rigidly fixed to the vehicle body frame FR without the intervention of the damper 60, the support stiffness of the step stays 24L and 24R is increased.

  By fixing the step stays 24L and 24R rigidly in this manner, the support of the rider step 22 attached thereto is strengthened, and the rider's posture is stabilized. Further, when the shift pedal 26 and the brake pedal 72 supported by the step stays 24L, 24R are operated, the displacement of the step stays 24L, 24R with respect to the rider's operation is small, and the rider's operation is received on the vehicle body by receiving the load. You can input straightforwardly. On the other hand, by supporting the heel guard 28 via the damper 60, transmission of vibration from the step stays 24L and 24R to the heel guard 28 is suppressed.

  Further, since the plurality of heel guard support portions 45 shown in FIG. 3 which are separated from each other are located on the single plane PL1 so as to be separated from each other in a side view, the heel guard 28 is fixed on a plane without twist. can do. As a result, the heel guard 28 can be firmly supported. For example, when the heel guard 28 is cantilevered only at its base, there is no supporting point for supporting the applied force at a portion away from the supporting point, and it is difficult to suppress displacement. According to the above configuration, since the heel guard 28 is supported by the plurality of heel guard support portions 45 that are separated from each other, displacement at a location away from the support point can be suppressed.

  The heel guard 28 shown in FIG. 2 is detachably attached to the step stays 24L and 24R by three fastening members 30 facing in the vehicle width direction. In this manner, by providing the step stays 24L, 24R and the heel guard 28 as separate bodies, only the heel guard 28 that can easily contact the heel (heel) portion and the ankle (ankle) portion of the rider can be replaced. In addition, the three fastening members 30 are spaced apart from each other on a single plane PL2 in side view. Accordingly, the fastening members 30 are attached on a plane, and can be firmly supported by a small number of the fastening members 30. Further, the three support points are not arranged on the same straight line. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the heel guard 28 from being angularly displaced about a straight line connecting any two support points as a rotation axis.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the fastening member 30 is located inside the outer side surface 28 a of the heel guard 28 in the vehicle width direction. As a result, the head 30a of the fastening member 30 is suppressed from protruding outward from the outer side surface 28a of the heel guard 28, so that the heel (heel) KA is less likely to be caught on the head 30a of the fastening member 30.

  A master cylinder 76, which is a type of rear wheel brake device, is supported on the right step stay 24R shown in FIG. As a result, it is not necessary to prepare a separate bracket exclusively for the brake device, so that the number of parts can be reduced. Further, since the brake support 69 supporting the master cylinder 76 in the step stay 24R is covered from the outside by the heel guard 28, the bolt 78 is not exposed to the outside, so that the appearance is improved.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the guard holders (overlapping portions) 38 of the step stays 24L and 24R are located inside the outer peripheral edge of the heel guard 28 in a side view. As a result, the guard holders (overlapping portions) 38 of the step stays 24L, 24R are covered by the heel guard 28 from the outside in a side view, so that the step stays 24L, 24R are connected to the heel (heel) portion of the rider, the ankle ( It is difficult to contact the ankle part.

  The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various additions, changes, or deletions can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention. For example, in the above embodiment, the heel guard 28 is attached to the step stays 24L, 24R by the fastening member 30, but the heel guard 28 may be attached to the step stays 24L, 24R by a joining means such as an adhesive. . In this case, the heel guard support portion 45 is a support portion formed by two or more joining means. The heel guard 28 may be attached to the step stays 24L, 24R by four or more fastening members 30 facing in the vehicle width direction. Therefore, such is also included in the scope of the present invention.
