ABSTRACT:
A motorcycle arrangement having a frame with an integral air inlet device that takes ram air and delivers it to the engine induction system. The frame air inlet device includes an enlarged portion that encircles components of the front wheel suspension so as to provide a large flow volume without interfering with the steering of the motorcycle. In one embodiment of the invention the air inlet device is formed by tubular members that pass the sides of the front fork and have a sealing relationship with the remainder of the frame assembly. The air inlet device also includes a forwardly extending inlet portion that is adapted to mount an instrument in a forward location and which, in one embodiment, has an interfitting relationship with the body.
