Abstract
An exhaust device for a saddle-type vehicle having a pipe section with respect to a vehicle body and housing a catalyzer therein, and a muffler connected to a rear end of the pipe section includes an upstream oxygen sensor disposed on the pipe section and positioned upstream of the catalyzer and a downstream oxygen sensor disposed on the pipe section and positioned downstream of the catalyzer. The pipe section includes a larger-diameter portion having an increased diameter for housing the catalyzer therein. The downstream oxygen sensor is disposed in the larger-diameter portion. The upstream oxygen sensor and the downstream oxygen sensor are positioned upwardly of a central line of the larger-diameter portion with respect to the vehicle body as viewed in side elevation of the vehicle body.
