Title:
SADDLE-TYPE VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/146679
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a saddle-type vehicle that can make it less likely for differences to arise between the status of the vehicle and a rider's perception of the status of the vehicle. A saddle-type vehicle (10) is provided with a body frame (12), a pair of front wheels (14L, 14R), a link mechanism (36), a lock mechanism (80), a control unit (86), and a notification unit (112). The link mechanism (36) connects the pair of front wheels (14L, 14R) to the frame (12). The lock mechanism (80) locks the link mechanism (36) by restricting the action of the link mechanism (36), and unlocks the link mechanism (36) by allowing the action of the link mechanism (36). The control unit (86) controls the locking and unlocking of the link mechanism (36) by the lock mechanism (80). The notification unit (112) issues a notification that the link mechanism (36) has been locked while the amount of relative vertical displacement between the pair of front wheels (14L, 14R) has exceeded a prescribed range.
