Abstract: A front structure of a saddle ride type vehicle includes a headlight unit, and a front cowl. The headlight unit includes at least one lens portion. The front cowl includes an annular cowl configured to surround the lens portions, an upper cowl configured to cover at least an upper portion of the annular cowl from the front side, and a wind screen. The edge portion of the upper cowl includes a portion that forms a slit-shaped opening. The annular cowl includes a light-shielding wall extending backward from a rear portion of the upper cowl between the opening and the wind screen.

Abstract: A front structure of a saddle ride type vehicle includes a headlight unit, a front cowl, and a middle cowl. At a position outside the headlight unit in the vehicle width direction, an air intake portion opening to the front side of the vehicle is formed between the front cowl and the middle cowl. The front cowl includes a partition wall configured to divide the air intake portion into an upper region and a lower region. The lower region forms an inlet of an air intake path of an air cleaner. The upper region forms a first wind guide path configured to discharge a traveling wind to the rear side of the front cowl.

Abstract: A front cowl structure for a saddle riding type vehicle for preventing turbulence in a stream of air flowing over a front cowl surface. The front cowl structure includes a duct placed inside a front cowl with a duct opening that opens to the front of the vehicle. The front cowl has a cowl front surface opening at a leading end portion thereof for opening a cowl front surface. Headlights are disposed on both lateral sides of the cowl front surface opening with each having a lens surface. The lens surfaces form opening edge portions on both lateral sides of the cowl front surface opening. The lens surfaces are each inclined to a vehicle outer side and rearwardly from the opening edge portions. The duct opening and a cowl opening central portion of the cowl front surface opening are substantially aligned with each other in a vehicle longitudinal direction.

Abstract: In a motorcycle having an air intake passage guiding an air flow to an internal combustion engine is formed between an upper surface of a front fender and a bottom plate of a front cowl covering a head pipe from the front and disposed just above a front wheel. The cooling performance of a heat exchanger disposed behind the front wheel and in front of an engine body is improved with a decrease in the air resistance by lowering the position of the front cowl. At least a part of an air intake duct is disposed above a front fender for supplying the air guided from an air flow inlet provided on the front end portion of a front cowl to an inlet system of an internal combustion engine. At least a part of the air intake duct forming a rear air intake passage is contained in the front cowl.

Abstract: A front cowl structure for a saddle riding type vehicle, capable of containing a stick phenomenon of an airflow in the front cowl. A pair of headlights is disposed on leading end lateral sides of a front cowl. Each of the headlights has a lens surface that includes at least a part formed to face downwardly. A front cowl structure has headlight neighboring openings formed on sides in a vehicle rearward of the lens surface, the headlight neighboring openings communicating with an inside of the front cowl.
