An intake manifold 10 includes: a blowby gas introduction port 16g that is configured to introduce blowby gas into a PCV chamber 15; a blowby gas exhaust port 16f that is configured to discharge the blowby gas from the PCV chamber 15 into a surge tank 11; and a drain hole 17c that is configured to discharge water contained in the blowby gas, from the PCV chamber 15 into the surge tank 11. A bottom wall 17d of the surge tank 11 includes protruding parts 17e, 17f that protrude upward, the blowby gas exhaust port 16f is located upstream of the most upstream side protruding part 17e located on the most upstream side, and the drain hole 17c is located downstream of the most upstream side protruding part.

An intake manifold 10 includes: a surge tank 11 that is connected on an upstream side thereof to a throttle valve 13; multiple branch pipes 12 that are arranged side by side in a longitudinal direction of the surge tank 11 and respectively connected to cylinders; and a PCV chamber 15 that is provided upstream of a central part in the longitudinal direction of the surge tank 11. The intake manifold includes: a blowby gas introduction port 16g that is designed to introduce blowby gas into the PCV chamber 15; and a blowby gas exhaust port 16f that is designed to discharge the blowby gas from the PCV chamber 15 into the surge tank 11, and the blowby gas exhaust port 16f is located at a position higher than the blowby gas introduction port 16g.

An internal combustion engine 31 for a motorcycle includes a supercharger 63 arranged above a crankcase 81 positioned below a front cylinder head 92 of a front bank 31A and a rear cylinder head 97 of a rear bank 31B. In the internal combustion engine 31 for the motorcycle, the crankcase 81 is covered with a case cover 116 from the outside in a vehicle width direction, and the supercharger 63 is supported by a supercharger supporting portion 116a provided above the case cover 116.

A first downstream part of an intake manifold has a first downstream passage configured to communicate with an intake port of a first cylinder head. A second downstream part of the intake manifold has a second downstream passage configured to communicate with an intake port of a second cylinder head. An upstream part is coupled to the first downstream part and the second downstream part. The upstream part is arranged upstream from the first and second downstream parts in the flow direction of intake air and has a first upstream passage and a second upstream passage. The material of the first downstream part and the material of the second downstream part both have higher rigidity than the material of the upstream part.
