A V-type engine has front (first) and rear (second) cylinders being offset to sides opposite from each other. The front (first) and rear (second) carburetors are mounted in alignment with the centers of the front and rear cylinders, respectively. The body of the front carburetor and the body of the rear carburetor are coupled to each other by linkage plates arranged in parallel with the line that joins the center of the front carburetor and that of the rear carburetor. The throttle shaft of the front carburetor and the throttle shaft of the rear carburetor are laid out perpendicular to the linkage plates and coupled to each other by means of a coupling linkage which is in parallel with the linkage plates. A throttle cable is connected to the throttle shaft of the front carburetor.
