The present invention relates to a luggage storage device for a motorcycle. In an embodiment, the invention can allow the capacity of a storage box to be large enough to accommodate long goods therein. In an embodiment, the invention includes a storage box having a front helmet storage portion and a rear helmet storage portion. The front helmet storage portion is disposed under a front seat. The rear helmet storage portion is disposed under a rear seat, which together with the front seat, constitutes a tandem type riding seat. The storage box is disposed under the riding seat so as to extend from under a front end of the riding seat up to near an upper portion of a rear cushion that suspends a rear wheel from a rear portion of a vehicle body frame.

A seat attachment structure for a vehicle having a seat hinge attached at one end of a seat, a first seat hook attached at the other end of the seat, a second seat hook attached substantially at the center of the seat, and a main locking mechanism and a sub-locking mechanism connected by a second cable. When locking the main locking mechanism, the sub-locking mechanism may also be brought into the locked state in conjunction therewith, and thus the seat can be locked easily and reliably. In addition, by providing a seat hook for the main locking mechanism at the other end of the seat, the seat hook for the main locking mechanism may be positioned at the farthest point form the hinge attached at one end of the seat. Therefore, when locking the main locking mechanism by pressing the end of the seat above the main locking mechanism downward by hand, a downward pressing force required to be exerted on the seat for generating a moment about the hinge may be reduced.

The rear combination lamp is set closer to the storage box by providing left and right pairs of bulbs, and bulbs forming left and right access openings for performing maintenance of the bulbs on the lower box, and closing the access openings with lids respectively. Since maintenance work of the bulbs can easily be made from the inside of the storage box and the rear combination lamp may be set closer to the storage box, the rear portion of the vehicle may be formed compact in configuration even when a large rear combination lamp is disposed rearward of a large storage box. Therefore, the width or the entire length of the rear portion of the vehicle body is not increased, and thus the appearance and operability of the vehicle may be improved.

Vehicle rear structure

A motor scooter with an enlarged storage compartment that decreases the overall bulk and weight of the vehicle. The storage compartment is effectively sealed to prevent water or spilled fuel from leaking therein, yet provides easy access to the engine located beneath it for purposes of maintenance and inspection. The contents of the storage compartment are protected from the heat generated by the engine which is in close proximity by an insulating wall construction.
