A vehicle that can secure both stable communication by an ECU including a communication unit that unlocks a handlebar lock module and theft prevention. The vehicle includes a steering shaft, a vehicle body frame including a head pipe that turnably supports the steering shaft and a seat rail that is disposed below a seat on which a rider is seated to fix the seat, and a communication unit for communicating with a smart key (a device external to the vehicle). The communication unit is provided below and on the outer side in a vehicle width direction of the seat rail and in a space covered by and on the inner side of a side cover (vehicle body cover) that protects a vehicle body part.

A structure of rocking lock operation part for a saddle riding vehicle, the structure of rocking lock operation part includes a rocking lock mechanism configured to lock lateral rocking of a vehicle body and a lock operator configured to switch between locking and unlocking of the rocking lock mechanism, wherein the rocking lock mechanism and the lock operator are disposed on the vehicle body, and, when seen in a side view, a gripping section of the lock operator is disposed in front of a position overlapping a pivot support member configured to pivotably support the steering handle in the vehicle body and disposed in rear of a headlight disposed in front of the pivot support member.

A vehicle includes a vehicle frame, a steering swivel unit supported on a head pipe of the vehicle frame and angularly movable about a steering axis, a steering handle mounted on the steering swivel unit, and a cover assembly covering the steering swivel unit from above, wherein the cover assembly includes a fixed cover fixed to a vehicle body and a movable cover covering an upper opening defined in the fixed cover, and the movable cover is angularly movable in unison with the steering handle.

A steering lock device includes a lock bar attached to a case member, a motor having an output shaft, a driving gear member which is attached to the output shaft of the motor and which is rotatable together with the output shaft, a driven gear member which is assembled in a state of being meshed with the driving gear member, and which is rotatable in a direction corresponding to a rotation direction of the driving gear member, and a feed screw member which is connected coaxially with the lock bar, which has a male thread screwed with a female thread of the driven gear member and which is capable of causing the lock bar to advance or retreat in an axial direction by the rotation of the driven gear member. The motor, the feed screw member and the lock bar are accommodated in parallel within the case member.

A scooter-type vehicle including a front wheel, a steering mechanism, a vehicle frame, a saddle, a vehicle cover and a main switch unit. The vehicle frame includes a head pipe, a front frame and a rear frame. The front frame extends rearwards and downwards from a rear portion of the head pipe, and, in a front view, overlaps the front wheel when the steering mechanism is in a non-rotating state. The vehicle cover includes a flat-shaped pedal or footboard, which is further forwards than the saddle above the rear frame, and a front cover extending upwards from a front end of the flat-shaped pedal or footboard. In a side view, at least a part of the main switch unit is further forwards than an imaginary line connecting a rear end of an upper edge of the head pipe and a rear end of a lower edge of the front frame.
