A plurality of parts that constitute an intake passage connected with an intake port of an engine include a constriction part that has a protrusion formed to protrude on an inner circumferential surface side of the intake passage. The constriction part includes cylindrical connections disposed on both sides of a constriction path in which the protrusion is formed. The constriction path has an outer circumferential surface recessed inwardly in a radial direction so as to follow a shape of the protrusion. A portion recessed most of the recessed outer circumferential surface is disposed inside inner circumferential surfaces of the connections in the radial direction. The constriction path has a uniform wall thickness. The constriction part is connected upstream of the throttle body.

An exhaust muffler for improving the timbre of an exhaust sound in a low engine speed region and for increasing an engine output in a high engine speed region. In an exhaust device for an internal combustion engine for discharging an exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine through a multistage expansion type muffler having a plurality of expansion chambers for silencing the sound of the exhaust gas during the passage thereof, the multistage expansion type muffler includes a first tail pipe for communicating between a most downstream one of the expansion chambers and the outside of the muffler and a second tail pipe for communicating between an upstream one of the expansion chambers on the upstream side of the most downstream expansion chamber and the outside of the muffler.
