A motorcycle comprising:

• a body frame;
• a trunk assembly disposed on a rearward portion of said body frame;
• a seat spaced forwardly of said trunk assembly and including a cushion construction having an interior resilient filler and an exterior covering skin whose upper face forms a sitting surface;
• a bottom plate supported by said body frame and mounting said seat, said bottom plate extending beneath said seat to a position spaced from said trunk assembly and defining a space therebetween;
• a backrest disposed on said trunk assembly adjacent said seat and having a bottom edge vertically spaced above said sitting surface of said seat;
• an under-backrest buffer having a cushion construction similar to that of said extending across said space between said seat and said backrest bottom, and including a water drain port communicating with said space, said drain port being disposed adjacent the connection formed by a sewn attachment between said seat and said under-backrest buffer.

A motorcycle comprising:

• a front body frame mounting an engine and longitudinally spaced front and rear wheels;
• a rear body frame;
• a trunk assembly including laterally spaced left and right trunks disposed on opposite sides of said rear wheel and a central trunk overlying said rear wheel, each of said trunks having generally rectangularly disposed front, rear and lateral side surfaces defining a box-like structure and a shutting lid for closing the top thereof;
• means on said rear body frame for fixedly attaching said trunk assembly;
• means forming a recess in the rear surface of said central trunk and a tail light assembly disposed in said recess, said recess forming means including a shutting lid removably attached to said central trunk and accessible from the interior thereof for accessing said tail light assembly;
• said rear body frame being positioned longitudinally rearwardly of said front body frame to locate said trunk assembly in enclosing relation with respect to said rear wheel to form the cover thereof;
• and
• means for detachably connecting said rear body frame to said front body frame, whereby detachment of said connecting means permits removal of said rear body frame and said trunk assembly to expose said rear wheel.

A motorcycle comprising:

• a front body frame mounting an engine and longitudinally spaced front and rear wheels;
• a rear body frame;
• a trunk assembly including laterally spaced left and right trunks disposed on opposite sides of said rear wheel and a central trunk overlying said rear wheel, each of said trunks having generally rectangularly disposed front, rear and lateral side surfaces defining a box-like structure and a shutting lid for closing the top thereof;
• a seat on said front body frame;
• a sitting surface on said seat;
• a backrest disposed on said central trunk front surface and having its bottom edge vertically spaced above the sitting surface of said seat;
• and an under-backrest buffer positioned intermediate the sitting surface of said seat and said backrest bottom edge, said seat, said backrest and said under-backrest buffer each being defined by a cushion construction including an interior resilient filler and an exterior covering skin, and wherein said underbackrest bluffer is connected to said seat by a sewn attachment of the respective covering skins thereof;
• said seat having a bottom plate supported by said front body frame, means forming a space between said bottom plate and said central trunk front surface, and a water drain port formed adjacent the connection between said seat and said under-backrest buffer communicating with said space;
• means on said rear body frame for fixedly attaching said trunk assembly;
• said rear body frame being positioned longitudinally rearwardly of said front body frame to locate said trunk assembly in enclosing relation with respect to said rear wheel to form the cover thereof;
• and
• means for detachably connecting said rear body frame to said front body frame, whereby detachment of said connecting means permits removal of said rear body frame and said trunk assembly to expose said rear wheel.

A motorcycle comprising:

• a front body frame mounting an engine and longitudinally spaced front and rear wheels;
• a rear body frame;
• a trunk assembly fixedly attached to said rear body frame and having vertically spaced sides and a top member operating to define a covered space for reception of said rear wheel, said trunk assembly including laterally spaced left and right trunks disposed on opposite sides of said rear wheel and a central trunk extending between said left and right trunks and overlying said rear wheel, each of said trunks being separately connected to said rear body frame and having generally rectangularly disposed front, rear and lateral side surfaces defining a box-like structure and a shutting lid for closing the top thereof,
• a rear fender extending between said left and right trunks beneath said central trunk, said rear fender being connected to said left and right trunks and to said rear body frame respectively;
• said rear body frame being positioned longitudinally rearwardly of said front body frame to operably dispose said rear wheel in confronting, face-to-face relation with said trunk assembly within the space formed thereby;
• means for releasably connecting said rear body frame to said front body frame, whereby release of said connecting means permits removal of said rear body frame and said trunk assembly as a unit to expose said rear wheel;
• a seat on said front body frame;
• a sitting surface on said seat;
• a backrest disposed on said central trunk front surface and having its bottom edge vertically spaced above the sitting surface of said seat;
• an under-backrest buffer positioned intermediate the sitting surface of said seat and said backrest bottom edge;
• said backrest and said under-backrest buffer each being defined by a cushion construction including an interior resilient filler and an exterior covering skin, wherein said under-backrest buffer is connected to said seat by a sewn attachment of the respective covering skins thereof;
• said seat including a bottom plate supported by said front body frame, means forming a space between said bottom plate and said central trunk front surface, and a water drain port formed in said under-backrest buffer adjacent the connection between said seat and said under-backrest buffer and communicating with said space.
