Abstract

PURPOSE: To improve the cooling property and the productivity by opening an air introduction port on a side face of a cowling and connecting the cowling and a frame with each duct provided on both respectively, to blow out air from the air introduction port to the vicinity of an inlet of an air cleaner. CONSTITUTION: A cowling 13 covering a front part and both sides of an engine 6 from a lower fringe of a main frame 3 is arranged in a front part of a vehicle body. An air introduction port 17 in which a front half part 15 is recessed inward and a rear half part 16 is swelled outward is opened on one side face of the cowling 13 in this configuration. A duct on cowling side 18 is connected with the back of the air introduction port 17, and a duct on frame side 20 is fixed on an inner face of the main frame 3. Moreover, a downstream end of the duct on frame side 20 is extended downward of an inlet 10 in an air cleaner 9, and a blow-out port 21 blowing air upward is opened at the downstream end.
