Abstract: A headlight assembly mounting a headlight to a vehicle by means of resilient blocks such that the headlight and associated headlight frame may be detached. An electrical cord is associated with the headlight such that the headlight may be moved some distance from the vehicle. The cord has a preset coil and extends to a container which easily receives the cord with the light in position on the vehicle. An electrical case provides for electrical connection of the hedlight cord and other associated electrical components. The container may be fixed adjacent to the electrical case with both being fixed to the vehicle.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a cowling structure of thin sheet material which forms a part of the vehicle frame in which the opposite side sections of the cowling firmly interconnected through the medium of the power propelling unit. Formed in one, or preferably both, of the opposite side sections of the cowling structure is an air outlet opening in which a radiator unit is fitted and a bifurcated air passage duct is defined in the cowling structure by an air-flow dividing guide plate so that an ample air supply is obtained through the front opening of the cowling to the pair of right and left radiator units during vehicle travel. In this manner, a cooling system of highly increased capacity is obtainable without any increase in air resistance of the vehicle. The guide plate also serves to strengthen the cowling structure without any substantial increase in weight.

Abstract: A rear fork for a motorcycle having hollow rear arms and metal end pieces for receiving an axle. The rear fork can be made of integrally molded fiber reinforced plastic. The metal end piece conforms to the configuration of the end of the arm and has locating projections which abut the end of the arm. The metal end piece can be inserted into the arm or can externally surround the end of the arm.

Abstract: A two-wheeled motorcycle includes a shell made of thin plates to the front end of which a head pipe is fixed. The shell is opened at its rear side and a rear wheel driving power unit is accommodated by and fixed to the shell. A seat stay carrying a rider's seat and covering the upper part of the rear wheel is pivotally secured at its front end to the shell so as to be rotated upward. A fuel tank is disposed ahead of the rider's seat and pivotally secured at its front end to the shell so as to be rotated upward.

Abstract: A two-wheeled motorcycle includes a shell for enveloping a power unit for driving a rear wheel of the motorcycle and to the front end of which a head pipe is fixed. The shell is composed of an upper shell half constituted at least by a top plate and right and left side plates, and a lower shell half constituted at least by left and right side plates and a bottom plate. The power unit is connected to the lower shell half to serve also as a mechanical strength member. The upper and lower shell halves are separably connected to each other at the ends of the side plates thereof.
