The motorcycle includes an engine, a radiator configured to cool cooling water for the engine, a radiator fan configured to suck and discharge air ahead of the radiator, a fan cover guiding downward the air discharged from the radiator fan, and a side cowl disposed on a side of the radiator, in which the side cowl has a cover side lower end at a lower end of a portion positioned below a portion overlapped with the fan cover in a side view, the cover side lower end being positioned adjacent to a lower end of the fan cover.
1. A motorcycle comprising:
an engine;
a radiator configured to cool cooling water for the engine;
a radiator fan configured to suck and discharge air ahead of the radiator;
a fan cover guiding downward the air discharged from the radiator fan; and
a side cowl disposed on a side of the radiator,
wherein the side cowl has a cover side lower end at a lower end of a portion positioned below a portion overlapped with the fan cover in a side view, the cover side lower end being positioned adjacent to a lower end of the fan cover, and the fan cover guides hot air from the radiator outward in a vehicle width direction, and
wherein the fan cover has an overall triangular shape and defines a flow channel configured to downwardly guide hot wind from the radiator fan, the flow channel having a sectional area expanding in the vehicle width direction toward a lower end thereof.
2. The motorcycle according to claim 1 , wherein the fan cover has an outer side surface in the vehicle width direction positioned outside in the vehicle width direction with respect to the outer side surface of the engine in the vehicle width direction.
3. The motorcycle according to claim 1 , further comprising an exhaust pipe connected to an exhaust port of the engine, the exhaust pipe extending forward from the exhaust port, and turning backward at a front end, wherein the side cowl is disposed with a vertical gap from at least part of the exhaust pipe.
4. The motorcycle according to claim 3 , wherein:
the cover side lower end has a rear end edge slanting upward toward a rear end thereof;
the side cowl has a lower end positioned above the front end of the exhaust pipe; and
the exhaust pipe extends forward from the exhaust port along the rear end edge to reach the front end.
5. The motorcycle according to claim 3 , wherein the exhaust pipe partially protrudes outward in a vehicle width direction from an extension plane anteroposteriorly extending from an anteroposterior end of the side cowl.
6. The motorcycle according to claim 1 , wherein the side cowl and the exhaust port of the engine form an open space that is open to both sides in a vehicle width direction.
7. The motorcycle according to claim 6 , further comprising an engine cover provided below the open space and covering the engine.
8. The motorcycle according to claim 1 , wherein the motorcycle has an opening allowing communication between a space behind the radiator and an outer space in the vehicle width direction of the motorcycle.
