ABSTRACT:
In a vehicle, such as a motor cycle, motor scooter, etc., including a driver seat located backward of a headpipe, a handle supporting portion is projected backward from the headpipe, a handle is pivotably mounted on a rear end portion of this handle supporting portion. And, this handle is connected to a steering stem penetrating the headpipe through an angle increasing mechanism. According to the present invention, since a comparatively large space formed between the headpipe and the driver seat is available, a driver can drive the vehicle in a comfortable sit-in style. A fairing member which fully covers the front portion of the vehicle from its front surface to its side surfaces can be mounted without interfering with the handle. Also, the fairing member can be arranged so as to be small in wind pressure resistance.
