Abstract: A remote control apparatus for a light vehicle having an engine, a movably mounted saddle-type seat, and a storage box positioned below the seat, the remote control apparatus including a portable transmitter and a receiver, wherein the portable transmitter is provided to be carried by a user remotely from the vehicle, and is operable to send signals to the receiver. The receiver is disposed in one of the storage box and the seat so as to be protected from adverse environmental conditions, and receives the signals from the portable transmitter. When a signal received by said receiver is a predetermined ID signal, the remote control system operates to enable at least starting of the engine.

Abstract: In a vehicle including a plurality of containing portions, namely, a front containing portion provided in an inner cover covering from the rear side a head pipe of a vehicle body frame at its front end and constituting a part of a vehicle body cover which can be locked in a fully closed condition, to facilitate the operation for releasing the lock conditions of the plurality of containing portions. A plurality of lock release operating buttons for respectively releasing the locked conditions of a plurality of containing portions inclusive of a front containing portion is disposed at an inner cover on a lateral side of the front containing portion.

Abstract: In a vehicle wherein a functional part arranged in a body cover is supported by a body frame and a lid which makes it possible to lock a closed state covering the functional part can be openably fitted to the body cover in a position matching the functional part. Thus, the risk of undesirable tampering with the unlocking member is to be minimized and the risk for the unlocking member to be influenced by external disturbance such as unfavorable weather is to be avoided as far as possible. A cover member in which a lid is arranged in a secluded position is openably disposed on a body cover, and an unlocking member for releasing the lid from the locked state is disposed on the body cover so as to be covered by a cover member in a closed state.

Abstract: A seat attachment structure for a vehicle having a seat hinge attached at one end of a seat, a first seat hook attached at the other end of the seat, a second seat hook attached substantially at the center of the seat, and a main locking mechanism and a sub-locking mechanism connected by a second cable. When locking the main locking mechanism, the sub-locking mechanism may also be brought into the locked state in conjunction therewith, and thus the seat can be locked easily and reliably. In addition, by providing a seat hook for the main locking mechanism at the other end of the seat, the seat hook for the main locking mechanism may be positioned at the farthest point form the hinge attached at one end of the seat. Therefore, when locking the main locking mechanism by pressing the end of the seat above the main locking mechanism downward by hand, a downward pressing force required to be exerted on the seat for generating a moment about the hinge may be reduced.

Abstract: A pair of arms extend from the lid for the oil filler port, and these arms are rotatably mounted on the vehicle body cover via the hinges. The hinge for supporting one of the arms is provided with a torsion spring for urging the lid in the opening direction, and the hinge for supporting the other arm is provided with a rotary damper for damping a speed of rotation of the lid. Since the hinged lid for a vehicle rotates smoothly in natural motion, which gives an upscale image, a hinged lid for a vehicle providing, for example, a feeling of operation suitable for the large scooter may be realized.
