ABSTRACT:
An air cleaner and an exhaust pipe insulator attaching structure for a vehicle engine. The air cleaner on a rear side of the engine includes an air cleaner element disposed in an upper portion inside an air cleaner case. An air cleaner intake-air duct is inserted into the air cleaner case obliquely from above, and then is curved inside the air cleaner case and extended up to directly underneath the air cleaner element. An exhaust duct provided at a front side of the engine is provided with an arc-shaped heat insulator structure. An attachment member includes a curved arc-shaped contact portion and attachment portions formed on an outward side of the arc-shaped contact portion in a radial direction. An inner-peripheral face of the arc-shaped contact portion of the attachment member is brought into contact with an outer-peripheral face of the exhaust duct, and held in place by a band member.
