Abstract
Wing portions are used to reinforce ground pressure of a front wheel of a vehicle, such as a motorcycle, in which a center of gravity of the vehicle in a driver riding state is positioned between a front wheel and a rear wheel of the vehicle. The wing portions, each of which is provided in such a manner that an aerodynamic center thereof is positioned forward and downward from the center of gravity of the vehicle, produces down-lift.
