A bicycle fairing for reducing drag created by a bicycle rider on a bicycle is provided. The bicycle has a bicycle frame mounted between a front wheel and a rear wheel and handlebars adjacent the front wheel. The bicycle fairing comprises a hollow cone-shaped windshield having an open base end and a pointed closed tip end. A mounting assembly mounts the windshield to the handlebars of the bicycle over at least a portion of the front wheel. The windshield extends substantially horizontally over at least a portion of the front wheel of the bicycle with the cone tip end of the windshield facing in a generally forward direction away from the bicycle rider. The windshield deflects air in an approximately three hundred sixty degree pattern creating a pocket of low air resistance around an upper portion of the bicycle rider thereby reducing drag.

An optical sensor disposition structure for a saddle riding vehicle includes an optical sensor, and an airflow guide member disposed in front of a head pipe and configured to cover a front section of a vehicle body and in which an introduction port configured to guide traveling air rearward is formed, wherein the optical sensor overlaps the introduction port when seen in a front view.

A decorative molded component includes: a substrate having a shell extending along a mating surface and a through hole adjacent to the shell and defined along the mating surface; and a molded body coated to the mating surface, the molded body covering the through hole to be continuous from a skin bonded to the shell. The decorative molded component improves appearance while keeping the functions of the two members.

One embodiment provides a rear portion structure of a saddle-ride type vehicle. The structure includes: seat frames inclined rearward and upward and supporting a riding seat; and a rear cowl having an upper cowl and a lower cowl. The upper cowl includes: a first cowl; and a second cowl which is connected to the first cowl and forms an opening upper edge portion of an opening for exposing a tail light. The lower cowl includes: a third cowl; and a fourth cowl which is connected to the third cowl and forms an opening lower edge portion of the opening. An approximately-U-shaped recessed portion is opened at a rear end of the third cowl. The fourth cowl forms the opening lower edge portion while covering the U-shaped recessed portion.

One embodiment provides a rear portion structure of a saddle-ride type vehicle. The structure includes: seat frames extending rearward and upward from a main frame; a riding seat supported on the seat frames; and a rear cowl covering the seat frames. The rear cowl is formed such that an upper cowl and a lower cowl are vertically assembled to each other by a vertical connecting portion. An upper connecting portion is formed on the upper cowl to extend over a lateral width of the upper cowl, a lower connecting portion is formed on the lower cowl to extend over a lateral width of the lower cowl, and each of them has a flat surface portion. An angle made by the flat surface portions is set to an acute angle.

A saddle-ride type vehicle includes a vehicle body frame steerably supporting a front fork by a head pipe and swingably supporting a rear wheel unit around a pivot, an air-cooled type fuel cell unit supported by the vehicle body frame on a rear side of the head pipe and including an outside air intake port facing forward, and a vehicle body cover defining a front of an intake air space that is connected to the intake port. The vehicle body cover includes a traveling air passage changing a direction of traveling air that flows in from a front. Accordingly, it is possible to efficiently supply traveling air to a fuel cell unit that includes a fuel cell.

A front structure of a saddle ride type vehicle includes a headlight unit, and a front cowl. The headlight unit includes at least one lens portion. The front cowl includes an annular cowl configured to surround the lens portions, an upper cowl configured to cover at least an upper portion of the annular cowl from the front side, and a wind screen. The edge portion of the upper cowl includes a portion that forms a slit-shaped opening. The annular cowl includes a light-shielding wall extending backward from a rear portion of the upper cowl between the opening and the wind screen.
