Abstract: An electric bicycle includes a motor that includes a stator and a rotor and that is driven by a battery, a reduction gear, an output shaft configured to output power of the motor, a sprocket fixed to the output shaft, a housing, and a water jacket configured to cool the motor. The water jacket includes a flange section protruding outward in a radial direction of the stator, the flange section being formed in the water jacket at a side opposite to the reduction gear in a vehicle width direction.

Abstract: An engine clutch device includes first and second alternately stacked frictional power transmitting members and a clutch pressure member for axially bringing the frictional power transmitting members into pressure contact. The clutch device includes an oil supply portion adjacent to a distal end of power transmission shaft. The clutch device has an oil supply structure including a clutch lifter member with a flange portion axially facing the distal end of power transmission shaft, to axially shift the clutch pressure member to release the pressure contact of the frictional power transmitting members. The flange portion has a bowl-shaped portion extending axially to surround the one end portion of the power transmission shaft. The bowl-shaped portion including the flange portion functions to guide oil axially inward along the power transmission shaft and serves to provide an improved oil supply effect to the frictional power transmitting members.

Abstract: An air intake system for a saddle-ride vehicle for facilitating the intake of fresh air and for enabling a discharge of excess pressure in an air cleaner box. The system includes an air cleaner box with an air cleaner element housed in an air cleaner case and an intake duct connected to the air cleaner box with an intake port open toward a vehicle front side, in which the intake duct has a duct opening oriented outward of the duct between the intake port and the air cleaner box. The air cleaner box includes parts for connecting the intake duct, a connecting tube and also case openings oriented outward of the case.

Abstract: To provide a rear portion structure of a saddle-type vehicle, which enables securement of a space for arranging vehicle-mounted components on the upper side of a drive chain at a position apart from a pivot shaft. A motorcycle includes a rear wheel swingably provided on a main member via a swing arm, a drive chain entrained about a driven sprocket provided on the rear wheel and a drive sprocket, and a seat frame. An air-exhaust pipe extends from an engine on a lower portion of the seat frame, an extending portion extends rearward of the vehicle from the seat frame, and a chain guide roller is mounted on the extending portion.
