Abstract: To provide a saddled vehicle whose center stand is set up with ease in a simplified structure. A rear suspension suspending a swingarm from a vehicle body has its total length varied by the drive of an actuator. A controller that controls the actuator is provided. By the controller expanding the rear suspension to a predetermined length according to an operation on an actuation switch, the swingarm swings downward to reach a position where a center stand will not touch a ground surface even if the center stand is unfolded to a fully unfolded position. Unfolding the center stand with the swingarm swung downward and then letting the rear suspension recover its original length lifts the rear wheel off the ground surface to complete setting up the center stand.
