A motorcycle has a large accommodating space and an enlarged capacity of a fuel filter. The motorcycle includes: a fuel tank disposed on the upper side of the rear wheel and on the rear side of the luggage box; a rear fender provided between the rear frames and, disposed between the luggage box and the rear wheel, and covering the rear wheel on the front and upper sides of the rear wheel; a fuel supply path; and a fuel secondary filter. The rear fender is so disposed that its front portion faces a rear wall of the luggage box, the front portion is inclined rearwardly upward so that the distance thereto from the rear wall increases along an upward direction, and the fuel secondary filter is disposed between the rear wall of the luggage box and the front portion of the rear fender.

A throttle lever device for a small-sized vehicle includes an operating lever which is rotated manually about a pivot shaft to pull or return a cable connected to a throttle valve in a fuel supply unit such as a carburetor. The throttle lever device includes a first link adapted to rotate about the pivot shaft of the operating lever in accordance with the pivotal motion of the operating lever, and a second link supported rotatably through a shaft on a front end side of the first link. One end portion of the second link is engaged with the cable. The first link has a restricting portion for restricting the rotation of the second link. A stopper member disposed in the rotating direction of the second link is adapted to abut the second link. The amount of cable pulled changes relative to the amount of operation of the operating lever which controls the throttle valve.

A frame structure for a snowmobile includes a frame front end member, right and left main frames, and a connecting mechanism. The frame front end member includes a pair of right and left head members, each being formed into a hollow columnar shape, disposed substantially in the vertical direction, and a cross-member connecting the head members to each other. The right and left head members are connected to front end portions of the right and left main frames. The connecting mechanism is tightly secured to the cross-member. An upper end portion of a suspending member for operably suspending a steering member is disposed at a front portion of a snowmobile.
