A control unit (A) includes an operation state determination unit () that determines an operating state of a driving source () and a communication state determination unit () that determines a communication state between an authentication unit () and a remote key (), and the control unit (A) disables a starting of the driving source () by a driving source starting unit () when the control unit (A) is in an ON state, the operation state determination unit () determines that the driving source () is in a non-operating state, and the communication state determination unit () determines that communication with the remote key () is lost.

Vehicle control system

A motorcycle includes a vehicle-side control unit that determines whether or not identification information from an electronic key conforms to identification information on a side of a vehicle. An ignition switch unit allows at least starting operation of an engine and unlocking operation of a handlebar, in accordance with a situation where the identification information from the electronic key conforms to the identification information on the side of the vehicle. The vehicle-side control unit and the ignition switch unit are disposed on one side of a head pipe of the vehicle. The vehicle-side control unit is disposed in the vicinity of the head pipe, and below the ignition switch unit.
