A seat-supporting structure for mounting on a motorcycle frame having a main skeleton includes: two load-bearing structures that are disposed under a seat of the motorcycle frame and that support a load on the seat of the motorcycle frame. Each of the two load-bearing structures includes: a base portion at a bottom of the load-bearing structure that includes a branch portion that extends upward in a diagonally backward direction and a frame-mounting portion on the main skeleton; a middle portion that extends, from the branch portion of the base portion, upward in a diagonally forward direction; a top portion that extends, from an upper part of the middle portion, upward in a diagonally backward direction and receives the load; and multiple openings and ribs that resist stress from the load and vibration while the motorcycle is in motion.

An electric vehicle rechargeable via electric power transferred from a power outlet separate from the vehicle includes a seat movable between a first position for supporting a person and a second position. A caddy is positioned below the seat to define a cable storage volume. The cable storage volume is accessible when the seat is in the second position. A charging port is positioned outside of the caddy and accessible with the seat in the first position. A charging cable is positioned within the caddy, the charging cable having a first end engageable with the charging port of the vehicle and a second end engageable with the power outlet. The first and second ends of the charging cable are removable from the caddy when the seat is in the second position to enable charging the electric vehicle via the charging cable and the charging port.

A seat rail of a motorcycle has two side members configured using fiber-reinforced resin. Each side member has a main body and an upper flange portion that protrudes in a width direction of a vehicle body from an upper side edge of the main body. An attachment element for attachment to the main frame of the vehicle body is provided at a front end portion of each side member, and the seat rail has at least one upper connecting member that connects two upper flange portions. The upper flange portion has an inflection section connecting the front section and the rear section such that the rear section of the upper flange portion is raised toward an upper direction with respect to the front section, and the inflection section is arranged between the front end portion of the side member and a foremost upper connecting member.

A battery attachment/detachment structure for a saddle-ride type electric vehicle includes substantially rectangular parallelepiped batteries for supplying electric power to an electric motorcycle, a battery case in which the batteries are housed, a battery-side terminal provided on the bottom surface of each battery, and a case-side terminal engaged with the battery-side terminal. An operation lever for connecting or separating the battery-side terminal and the case-side terminal to/from each other by being operated in the up-and-down direction of a vehicle body, and a locking member for holding the operation lever at a position where the battery-side terminal and the case-side terminal are connected to each other are provided. The locking member regulates the movement of the operation lever towards the upper side of the vehicle body by engaging with the operation lever. The disclosed structure can regulate the movement of housed batteries to maintain excellent electrical connection with a simple configuration.
