Abstract: A vehicle has a vehicle frame, two front wheels, a rear wheel. An engine with at least one cylinder is mounted to the vehicle frame such that a cylinder plane extends generally longitudinally and vertically. At least a portion of the at least one cylinder is disposed forward of a front wheel plane. A transmission assembly disposed longitudinally rearward of the engine. A straddle seat is disposed at least in part longitudinally rearward of the assembly. The engine is entirely disposed between a center of the left footrest and a center of the right footrest in the lateral direction.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a frame, a plurality of ground-engaging members, a steering assembly for steering the vehicle, an internal combustion engine, and a continuously variable transmission (CVT). An engine air intake system provides air to the engine and includes a first air inlet facing generally forwardly and a first rearwardly-extending conduit portion extending rearwardly from the first air inlet. The first rearwardly-extending conduit portion fluidly communicates with an engine air inlet. A CVT air intake system provides air to the CVT and includes a second air inlet facing generally forwardly and a second rearwardly-extending conduit portion extending rearwardly from the second air inlet. The second rearwardly-extending conduit portion fluidly communicates with a cooling air inlet of the CVT. The engine is disposed at least in part laterally between the first and second rearwardly-extending conduit portions.
