  • Publication number: 20230057719
    Abstract: A leaning vehicle includes a vehicle body, a left front wheel, a right front wheel, a lean mechanism, a lean brake mechanism, a steering handle, a left grip, a throttle grip, a lean brake manipulator. The lean mechanism causes the left front wheel and the right front wheel to lean about a front-rear direction as a rotation center when the vehicle body leans about the front-rear direction as a rotation center. The lean brake mechanism brakes the leaning operation by the lean mechanism while the leaning vehicle is traveling. The lean brake manipulator is positioned at a first side in the vehicle width direction, changes a position integrally with the left grip, and for performing an operation of actuating the lean brake mechanism to brake.

  • Publication number: 20230037344
    Abstract: A leaning vehicle includes a vehicle body, a left front wheel, a right front wheel, a lean mechanism, and a suspension. The left front wheel is positioned on the first side (left side) in the vehicle width direction. The right front wheel is positioned on the second side (right side) opposite to the first side in the vehicle width direction. The lean mechanism connects the left front wheel and the right front wheel and vertically vibrates integrally with both of the left front wheel and the right front wheel. The suspension is positioned so as to overlap the center of the vehicle in the vehicle width direction, connects the lean mechanism to the vehicle body, and reduces vibration transmitted from a road surface to the vehicle body via the left front wheel and the right front wheel.

  • Publication number: 20230030243
    Abstract: A leaning vehicle includes a vehicle body, a plurality of wheels, a lean mechanism, and a lean stopper mechanism. The wheels include a left front wheel and a right front wheel. The lean mechanism causes the left front wheel and the right front wheel to lean about a front-rear direction as a rotation center when the vehicle body leans about the front-rear direction as a rotation center. The lean stopper mechanism prevents a lean angle from exceeding a limit angle. in a plan view, an area bounded by lines connecting contact positions of ground and tires of the plurality of wheels is referred to as a grounding surface inner area, and a gravity center is positioned in the grounding surface inner area in a state where the lean angle reaches the limit angle.
