Abstract: A body frame for a vehicle includes a head pipe on which a front fork is mounted for permitting a turning movement. A box-shaped box frame portion extends obliquely rearward and downwards from the head pipe. A twin tube portion extends obliquely downward and rearward on the left and right sides from a rear end of the box frame portion. The twin tube portion has a smaller width than the width of the box frame portion. A rear frame portion extending obliquely rearward and downward from the rear ends of the twin tube portion has a greater width than the width of the twin tube portion. Accordingly, the body frame can be formed such that it has a high rigidity in the proximity of the head pipe but has a low rigidity at a central portion of the body. Accordingly, a load transmitted from the road surface to the head pipe through the front wheel and the box frame portion can support the front fork.
