To provide a vehicle body cover structure for a saddled vehicle, capable of achieving restrictive improvements on rigidity of the vehicle body cover. A vehicle body cover structure for a saddled vehicle includes a radiator shroud formed of a fiber-reinforced resin covering an outside of a vehicle body. The fiber-reinforced resin is formed of a cloth woven from warp threads and filling threads formed of fibers. In the vehicle body cover structure, the radiator shroud has the cloth disposed thereon. The cloth has disposed thereon a bisector that divides an angle formed between the warp threads and the filling threads into two equal parts. The bisector is disposed so as to extend along a line segment that connects between a third mounting portion to be fixed to a vehicle body side and a front end portion that is farthest from the third mounting portion.

A front structure for a straddle-type vehicle includes a front cushion unit supported by a support shaft installed between a pair of left and right arms of a straddle-type vehicle while being disposed at a position behind a front wheel steering shaft of the straddle-type vehicle and above an engine, and a cover that covers a space between the pair of left and right arms between the front wheel steering shaft and the front cushion unit.

A saddle-type vehicle is equipped with a rearview mirror. The rearview mirror includes a stay extending from a vehicle body outward in a vehicle width direction, and a housing connected to an extending end portion of the stay and extending outward in the vehicle width direction, the housing including a mirror body. The housing further includes an upper wall and a lower wall which are arranged at positions overlapping each other in the vertical direction of the vehicle body. The upper wall has an upper outer surface portion whose length in a front-rear direction is shorter than the length of a lower outer surface portion of the lower wall in the front-rear direction, as viewed in a cross-sectional view perpendicular to the vehicle width direction.

A longitudinally tapered wheel spoke having a thin aerodynamic cross-sectional profile proximate to the wheel rim and tapering to a round profile toward the central hub, with the tapered section optimized to minimize drag against a combined headwind and crosswind impinging upon the primary vehicle-drag-inducing uppermost region of the wheel assembly.

An electric drive motorcycle (100), comprises: a front portion comprising one or more front wheels (103) and a handlebar (104); a rear portion comprising a saddle (101), a shell body (107) arranged below said saddle (101), and a rear wheel (105) arranged below said shell body (105); an intermediate portion (108) extending as a connection between said front portion and said rear portion; an electric drive unit (8) connected to said rear wheel (105); a power supply unit feeding said electric drive unit (8); and a helmet carrying compartment (11) placed in the shell body (107) below the saddle (101), wherein said power supply unit is arranged in a position below said helmet carrying compartment (11), so that said saddle (101), said helmet carrying compartment (11) and said power supply unit are substantially stacked on each other, being said helmet carrying compartment (11) and said power supply unit arranged inside the shell body (107), wherein said supply unit comprises a battery unit (15) or a battery unit (15) and an electric motor/generator, wherein a control unit apt to control said drive unit (8) and said battery unit (15) is provided, said control unit comprising a case (20) arranged below the battery unit (15), wherein a rear fork (1) jointed to the shell body (107) is provided, said rear fork comprising at least a fork arm (3, 4) extending between said shell body (107) and said drive unit (8), and wherein said rear fork (1) is placed beside and/or surrounds said case (20).
