To provide a rear wheel supporting structure in a three-wheeled vehicle for enhancing durability of a swing arm and enhancing vehicle body stability when finishing cornering.
This supporting structure is a structure of the swing arm 10 in the three-wheeled vehicle 1 in which rear wheels 4 of a motorcycle are made as two wheels. The swing arm 10 is constituted of a body part 11 for supporting the rear wheels 4 and a pair of connecting arms 12 for connecting both ends of the vehicle body width direction of the three-wheeled vehicle 1 in the body part 11 and a frame 2 of the three-wheeled vehicle 1. Both of the pair of the connecting arms 12 are formed into linear shapes. When energy stored in a form such as bending or torsion, etc. is discharged to the connecting arms 12, reaction force can be prevented from being rapidly applied to the frame 2 from the connecting arms 12. As a result, the vehicle body stability during the cornering and after finishing the cornering can be enhanced.
