ABSTRACT:
A rear axle supporting structure in a three-wheeled motor vehicle equipped with a chain drive mechanism. A holder member having an eccentric bore is fitted in a pipe member which is fixed to the rear end of a swing arm, and a rear axle is inserted in the eccentric bore of the holder member. A brake caliper for braking a brake disc is connected to the holder member through a caliper supporting member concentrically rotatably with respect to the eccentric bore of the holder member.
Adjustment of the drive chain is effected by turning the holder member, without affecting the positional relation between the vehicle body frame and the swing arm, without any inclination of the rear axle occurring, and while maintaining a constant positional relation between the brake disc and the brake caliper.
