Abstract

Provided is a vehicle body frame structure which can reduce a burden in assembly of a straddle-type vehicle. The structure comprises a head pipe; and a pair of main frames extending rearward from the head pipe and outward in a vehicle width direction such that the main frames are spaced apart from each other in the vehicle width direction. Rear portions of the pair of main frames are detachably coupled to each other in the vehicle width direction via a coupling member. The pair of main frames include a pair of front frame members including respective first mounts to which a drive unit of the vehicle is mounted, and a pair of respective rear frame members located rearward relative to the front frame members. The pair of rear frame members have a stiffness lower than that of the front frame members in the vehicle width direction.
