Abstract
A saddle-ride type vehicle in which left and right radiators are disposed on the sides of a vehicle body and the peripheries of these left and right radiators are covered by cover members to cause traveling air to pass through the left and right radiators from their inner sides to outer sides, the saddle-ride type vehicle including air introduction paths provided on the outer sides of the cover members and formed by the cover members and cowl members disposed outward of the cover members in the vehicle width direction.
Claims10
A saddle-ride type vehicle comprising:
- a radiator for cooling an engine disposed on each of left and right sides of a vehicle body such that a longitudinal direction of the radiator extends along a vehicle front-rear direction;
- a cover member covering a periphery of the radiator to cause traveling air flowing through an inner side of the vehicle body to pass through the radiator from the inner side of the vehicle body to an outer side of the vehicle body to cool the radiator;
- and
- an air introduction path which is provided on an outer side of the vehicle body relative to the cover member and through which part of traveling air flowing along the outer side of the vehicle body is guided to a discharged-air outlet area of the radiator,
- wherein the air introduction path is defined by the cover member and a cowl member disposed outward of the cover member in a vehicle width direction and forming an exterior surface of the vehicle, and
- the cowl member extends toward an outer side of the radiator in the vehicle width direction from an inlet of the air introduction path situated at a front end of the cowl member.
