ABSTRACT:
A brake hose support structure for a vehicle having a first brake hose connected to a master cylinder, and second and third brake hoses connected respectively to left and right brake calipers. The first, second, and third hoses are joined to each other on a front fender. The joining between these brake hoses is accomplished by a hose joint having of a three-way joint fixed to a right side surface portion of the front fender. The second brake hose connected to the brake caliper on the left side is disposed bridgingly on a rear surface of the fender relative to a top portion of the front fender, and extends from the right side surface portion of the fender to the left side surface portion of the fender. The resulting configuration provides intake efficiency and cooling efficiency for the vehicle without causing increases in the number of component parts.
