A straddle-type rough-road running vehicle includes a vehicle body frame supporting front and rear wheels, an engine unit mounted to the vehicle body frame and including an engine body and a power transmission case, a straddle type driver's seat, an intake control unit for controlling an air/fuel ratio, and an air-cleaner case for supplying a clean air to the intake control unit. The intake control unit and the air-cleaner case are connected to each other, and the air-cleaner case is disposed above the power transmission case. An engine mounting portion is formed in a frame shape opened such that the engine unit is surrounded from a vertical direction and a longitudinal direction. The engine body, the power transmission case, the intake control unit, and the air-cleaner case are disposed in an arrangement offset from the engine mounting portion in a side view.

Straddle-type rough-road running vehicle

An all terrain vehicle has a rear structure in which a exhaust duct extends rearward from a rear portion of a belt transmission and is detachably supported by a vehicle body frame, the exhaust duct is composed of a plurality of constituent members coupled to one another along an exhaust direction of the exhaust air flowing in the exhaust duct, the constituent members having a distance from one another are formed from a high rigidity material maintaining its own shape thereof, and the constituent members are detachably coupled to one another through a coupling member formed of an elastic material.

Rear structure of all terrain vehicle

An all terrain vehicle for smoothly introducing an exhaust air from a radiator rearward and improving cooling performance for cooling respective members of the vehicle is provided with a front structure, in which a cooling fan is provided on a rear surface of the radiator so that a central portion of the cooling fan is offset from a center of the radiator toward a side opposite to a side on which the belt transmission is arranged, an exhaust pipe connected to a front portion of the cylinder assembly is provided to extend toward the side on which the belt transmission is arranged so that the exhaust pipe extends downward at a portion above the belt transmission, and the inlet duct is provided on the side on which the exhaust pipe is provided so as to vertically extend along the vehicle body frame provided vertically through a portion below the exhaust pipe.

Front structure of all terrain vehicle

A breather device of a vehicle engine is arranged so as to shut off an engine intake system from heat of an engine exhaust system and to make effective use of dead space for location. The breather device includes a breather tank arranged independently between the engine intake system and the engine exhaust system on the rear side of a cylinder assembly of the engine above a crankcase thereof; and a plurality of breather pipes connecting the breather tank to the engine and the engine intake system.
