ABSTRACT:
A front brake system for a motorcycle provided with a front suspension system comprising a link mechanism having a quadrilateral side configuration wherein an upper fork secured to the front end of a vehicle body frame so as to be pivotable to the right and left and a lower fork which supports a front wheel are interconnected through two front arms and two rear arms. The front brake system comprises a brake disk integrally fixed to the front wheel and held rotatably thereby and a brake caliper for braking the front wheel by pressing a brake pad against the brake disk, the brake caliper being disposed below the lower fork and behind a perpendicular line passing through a front wheel axle. The caliper is mounted so as to utilize space effectively and in a low position to lower the center of gravity, and a simplified anti-driving mechanism is provided.
