Two-Seater Off-Road Vehicle
A two-seater off-road vehicle includes a travel vehicle body that is supported on the ground by a front wheel unit and a rear wheel unit, and a boarding part disposed above a vehicle body frame included in the travel vehicle body. The boarding part includes: a driver seat; a steering operation tool in front of the driver seat; and a passenger seat of a saddle seat type behind the driver seat.
HYBRID-DRIVE MOTORCYCLE AND HYBRIDIZATION KIT FOR A MOTORCYCLE
A hybrid-drive motorcycle comprising an endothermic engine, a rear wheel connected to a carrier structure through a swingarm, a gearbox connected to the endothermic engine through a primary transmission and to the rear wheel through a secondary transmission, and a reversible electric machine, wherein an auxiliary transmission connects the electric machine to an input shaft of the secondary transmission, and wherein the electric machine is mounted on the carrier structure below the swingarm.
HYBRID STRADDLE VEHICLE
A hybrid straddle vehicle includes: an internal combustion engine; an electric motor that generates power to be transmitted to a driving wheel; an inverter that controls electric power to be supplied to the electric motor; a first radiator that cools the internal combustion engine; and a second radiator that cools at least one cooling target selected from the group consisting of the electric motor and the inverter, at least a part of the second radiator overlapping the first radiator when viewed from a vehicle front side, the second radiator being located in front of the first radiator.
Straddled vehicle
A straddled vehicle having an engine unit supported by a vehicle body frame. The engine unit includes an engine body, a turbocharger, and an exhaust device. The exhaust device includes an exhaust pipe and a muffler that are connected to each other to form a portion of an exhaust passage, to allow the exhaust gas passed through the turbocharger to pass therethrough, and a first catalyst and a second catalyst that are arranged in this order along a direction in which the exhaust gas flows through the exhaust pipe. The exhaust pipe has an upstream end thereof connected to the turbocharger, a downstream end thereof connected to the muffler, and a corner section that is bent in at least a part thereof between a downstream end of the first catalyst and an upstream end of the second catalyst, the catalysts not being arranged in the corner section.
STRADDLE TYPE VEHICHLE AND REGULATOR COVER
There is provided a straddle type vehicle including: an engine; a fuel tank configured to store fuel to be supplied to the engine; a power generator driven by the engine; a regulator disposed below the fuel tank and configured to adjust electric power supplied from the power generator to a battery; and a regulator cover that includes a side wall covering the regulator on an outer side in a vehicle width direction and an upper wall covering an upper side of the regulator. The upper wall is formed below a side lower edge of the fuel tank to extend from an inner side to the outer side in the vehicle width direction with respect to the side lower edge.
Drive assembly for an electric vehicle
An electric vehicle includes a frame, a wheel coupled to the frame, and a battery assembly including a housing supported by the frame. The housing includes a top side and a bottom side opposite the top side. A drive assembly of the electric vehicle is at least partially enclosed within a drive housing unit. The drive assembly includes a motor configured to receive power from the battery assembly and a gear assembly configured to transmit torque from the motor to the wheel. The drive housing unit is positioned below the bottom side of the housing.
SADDLE RIDING VEHICLE
A saddle riding vehicle includes: an engine disposed between a front wheel and a rear wheel; a fuel tank disposed above the engine; a generator mounted to a crankshaft of the engine; and an inverter that supplies output of the generator to a battery. The inverter is disposed behind a head pipe, above a crankcase and below the fuel tank.
Rear wheel braking device for motorcycle
To provide a rear wheel braking device for a motorcycle that can reduce an unsprung mass and the number of pieces of components on the rear wheel side of a shaft drive type motorcycle. In a rear wheel braking device for a motorcycle transmitting a drive force of a power unit of a motorcycle to a rear wheel through a drive shaft that extends in a vehicle longitudinal direction, the drive shaft includes a propeller shaft that is connected to a rear end of an output shaft through a universal joint, the output shaft protruding to the vehicle body rear side from a case member of the power unit. A brake disk is attached to the output shaft, the brake disk being braked by a rear wheel brake caliper. The rear wheel brake caliper is fixed to a bracket that is arranged in the case member, and is disposed on the vehicle body upper side of the brake disk.
