A saddle riding vehicle includes a front fork including a pair of left and right fork tubes and a pair of top and bottom bridges connecting the left and right fork tubes, a headlight, and an electric part accommodating member accommodating electric parts, the electric part accommodating member being disposed on the rear side of the headlight in a space surrounded by the left and right fork tubes and the top and bottom bridges. The electric part accommodating member includes a fastening section fixed to the front fork by a fastening member and a fitting section fitted and fixed to the bridge.

A straddle vehicle includes a front fork unit provided to be inclined rearwardly, a front cover provided forwardly of the front fork unit, and having a rear cover member, and a front cover member separately provided from the front cover member and positioned forwardly of the rear cover member, a headlamp provided at the front cover, a holder attached to the rear cover member and holds the headlamp, and a driver that drives the headlamp. The driver stored in the front cover such that the driver is located at a position farther upward than the headlamp, farther rearward than a first virtual line extending in a up-and-down direction through a rear end of the headlamp in a front-to-rear direction of the vehicle, and farther rearward than a second virtual line extending in parallel with an axis of the front fork unit in the side view of the vehicle.

A bicycle handlebar assembly comprises a base bar, a v-shaped stem selectively removable from the base bar, and a bicycle fork assembly. Control cables from the bicycle may be routed from the base bar into hollow diverging stem members of the v-shaped stem. The bicycle fork assembly comprises an external-steerer fork having a load-bearing member and a preload tensioning rod. The preload tensioning rod fits within a head tube of the bicycle, and a hollow space around the preload tensioning rod accommodates control cables passing from the v-shaped stem into a hollow portion of the bicycle frame. The v-shaped stem is secured against the base bar by a pair of nut plates. In some examples, an engagement portion of an accessory such as an aerobar extension assembly is configured to secure the v-shaped stem and an aerobar extension against the base bar.

A saddled vehicle includes a steering stem inserted into a center part of a top bridge and having an upper end to be fixed to the top bridge with a fastening member. The saddled vehicle includes a handle locking device placed behind the top bridge in the vehicle front-rear direction. The handle locking device has a locking member and the top bridge includes a retaining recess on the rear face for detachable engagement with the locking member. The center part of the top bridge has a through hole for penetration of the steering stem and a storage recess that stores the upper end of the steering stem and the fastening member and is open toward the upper face of the top bridge. The storage recess continues to the upper part of the through hole while having a bottom that faces upward and is located between the through hole and the wall of the storage recess. The top bridge has a drainage hole connecting the storage recess and the retaining recess.

A two-wheeled vehicle is provided including a frame, front and rear ground-engaging members each supporting the frame, a straddle-type seat, a handlebar for steering the vehicle, at least one light device configured to operate in a hazard mode, an engine supported by the frame and operably coupled to the ground-engaging members, a tilt sensor, and a vehicle control unit in communication with the tilt sensor. The vehicle control unit is operative to detect a tilt angle of the vehicle based on output from the tilt sensor. The vehicle control unit is operative to determine a tip-over condition of the vehicle based on the detected tilt angle exceeding a threshold tilt angle. The vehicle control unit activates the hazard mode of the at least one light in response to the determination of the tip-over condition.
