Title:
SADDLED VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/056771
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a saddled vehicle configured so that an opening for a horn will be less visually perceptible and a reduction in the rigidity of a front cowl will be prevented. A saddled vehicle is provided with: a front cowl (20) for covering a head pipe from the front; and a horn, at least a part of which is covered with the front cowl (20) when viewed from the front. An opening (21) for the horn is formed in the front cowl (20). The front cowl (20) is constituted by joining a plurality of split cowls (30, 40). A gap (22c) is provided at the joint (22) where the split cowls (30, 40) are joined, and the gap (22c) forms the opening (21) for the horn. The opening (21) for the horn can be made less visually perceptible by overlapping the opening (21) on the split line (22) of the front cowl (20). There is no need to form a hole directly in the front cowl (20) to thereby provide the opening (21) for the horn, and therefore a reduction in the rigidity of the front cowl (20) can be prevented.
