Vehicle

A vehicle comprising:

• a body frame;
• a left front wheel and a right front wheel disposed in a left and right direction of the body frame when seen from a front of the vehicle and that are configured to be steered;
• a rear wheel disposed behind the left front wheel and the right front wheel;
• a hydraulic brake system provided on any one of the right front wheel, the left front wheel, and the rear wheel;
• a left shock absorbing device that supports the left front wheel at a lower portion thereof and is configured to absorb an upward displacement of the left front wheel in an up-and-down direction of the body frame;
• a right shock absorbing device that supports the right front wheel at a lower portion thereof and is configured to absorb an upward displacement of the right front wheel in the up-and-down direction of the body frame;
• a link mechanism including:
• a right side member that supports an upper portion of the right shock absorbing device so as to turn about a right steering axis that extends in the up-and-down direction of the body frame;
• a left side member that supports an upper portion of the left shock absorbing device so as to turn about a left steering axis parallel or substantially parallel to the right steering axis;
• and
• a plurality of cross members that support the right side member at right end portions thereof so as to turn about right axes that extend in a front-and-rear direction of the body frame, that support the left side member at left end portions thereof so as to turn about left axes parallel or substantially parallel to the right axes, and supported on a link support portion of the body frame at middle portions thereof so as to turn about middle axes parallel or substantially parallel to the right axes and the left axes;
• an external vehicle component of which at least a portion is disposed forward of or rearward of the link mechanism in the front-and-rear direction of the body frame and that defines at least a portion of an external surface of the vehicle;
• and
• a hydraulic unit configured to control a braking force of the hydraulic brake system;
• wherein
• the hydraulic unit is smaller than a cross member movable area where the plurality of cross members move relative to the body frame as seen from a direction of the middle axes, is disposed in a position that overlaps at least a portion of the cross member movable area and at least a portion of the external vehicle component as seen from the direction of the middle axes and between the cross member movable area and the external vehicle component in relation to the direction of the middle axes, and is supported on the link support portion of the body frame that supports the link mechanism.
